All of our events may be recorded and shared via the University of Sheffield Kaltura platform so those who cannot attend may still benefit. We will consider your attendance implicit consent to this.
Do you write code as part of your research? Could your software benefit others? Then publish it! You can publish a peer-reviewed paper about your research software! This not only gives your work formal recognition but also increases its visibility and impact!
Join us for a 1-hour Lunch Byte seminar where we’ll introduce the Journal of Open Source Software (JOSS)—a leading academic journal dedicated to publishing research software papers. Since its launch in 2016, JOSS has published 2,400+ papers across diverse scientific fields, supporting software for complex modeling, research experiments, scientific instruments, and more.
🎤 Speakers:
✅ Romain Thomas – Head of Research Software Engineering
✅ Arfon Smith – JOSS Editor-in-Chief
✅ Edwin Brown – Senior Research Software Engineer
Together, we’ll walk you through the JOSS submission process, from preparing your software and manuscript to peer review and final publication. You’ll also gain insights from both submitter and reviewer perspectives!
This event is for University of Sheffield researchers and research students only.
Prerequisite skills: None
This course will be run in-person with catering, for which the number of place is limited to 45. A link to follow the talk online will also be provided. Please register only if you plan to come in-person.
We are delighted to be able to make free at point of use training available to the research community, to enable better software and more open, reproducible research. However, free at point of use training is not free. The cost of a course can easily run to thousands of pounds, if preparation costs are taken into account.
If you sign up for a course, please make sure you either attend or cancel your booking. Bookings can usually be managed using myDevelopment or, failing that, by emailing rse@sheffield.ac.uk.
Running courses that are not fully attended wastes our funding (which is provided by taxpayers, charities and students, amongst others) and reduces our collective capacity to improve research outputs and researcher experiences.
Persistent failure to attend booked courses might result in you being excluded from future training opportunities.
More details and registration via myDevelopment.
