JSPG & NSPN 2024 Summer Standard Issue Events
The Journal of Science Policy & Governance (JSPG) and the National Science Policy Network (NSPN) are pleased to partner on the 2024 JSPG Summer Standard Issue, with the goal of generating and amplifying policy ideas from the next generation and putting their ideas into action.
Leading up to the submission deadline, JSPG and NSPN will organize a series of events to help prospective authors improve their submissions to the Summer Standard Issue, including one writing workshop and two virtual expert panels.
WRITING WORKSHOP
Writing Workshop: May 2024: This workshop will set the stage for candidate authors to strengthen capabilities in developing policy solutions, drafting outlines, and building out a full article, covering a variety of formats published in JSPG (memos, policy briefs and policy position papers) and providing opportunities to team with other participants in breakout rooms.
WEBINARS
Summer Standard Issue Kickoff: April 23, 2024 Fireside Chat with Tepring Piquado, Ph.D, and Julianne McCall, Ph.D.: To celebrate the kickoff of the Summer Issue's Call for Papers, JSPG and NSPN co-hosted a virtual fireside chat with Tepring Piquado, Ph.D, Executive Director at NSPN and Julianne McCall, Ph.D., CEO and Managing Publisher at JSPG.
As two practitioners of science policy, Dr. Piquado and Dr. McCall have both stepped up to lead their respective organizations within the last year. In this hour-long conversation, both leaders lay out their vision for JSPG and NSPN going forward, including their expectations for the joint Summer Standard Issue. This discussion provided an opportunity for early career STEMM professionals, students, and trainees to engage directly with comments and questions.
