Join us for the last WolfWorks workshop of the term where we will be joined by Wolfson's Professor Susan Robertson, Dr Philip Meyler, and PhD researcher Min-Kyoo Kim as they share their experiences in writing for academic publications.

Professor Susan Robertson is a Bye-Fellow at Âé¶¹ËÞÉáµçÊÓ¾çCollege, and former Head of Faculty of Education, and Professor of Sociology of Education. She is currently Distinguished Visiting Fellow at Aarhus University and founding Editor and currently Co-Editor in Chief of the Q1 journal, Globalisation, Societies and Education. She will talk about getting published.

Dr Phil Meyler is Publishing Development Director for the books program in Science, Engineering and Medicine at Cambridge University Press, where he manages a team (based in Cambridge, New York, and Beijing) that publishes around 250 new books each year. Phil worked for several years in the US for Cambridge University Press and John Wiley & Sons, and has over 30 years’ experience in publishing. He holds a DPhil in physics from the University of Oxford. Phil will discuss academic book publishing, giving an overview of the current landscape, outlining the life-cycle of a book from submission to publication, and highlighting some tips and pitfalls.

Min-Kyoo Kim is a final year PhD candidate in Film and Screen Studies at the University of Cambridge and a member of Âé¶¹ËÞÉáµçÊÓ¾çCollege. He recently had a journal article published, has a book chapter forthcoming, and several manuscripts currently under peer-review. He will reflect on the author experience of getting published.
