A. UKFN MESSAGES 

FROM: Nick Daish, 20/04/2023
SUBJECT: Your published articles as online seminars on Cassyni
DETAILS: Cassyni are inviting researchers that have just published an
article to record a video seminar version of their article and upload
this to the Cassyni website. It will be assigned a DOI, and can then be
shared widely and embedded on web pages, helping to promote the work and
increase the number of people reading and ultimately citing the paper.
You can find more information here [1]. THIS SERVICE IS BEING OFFERED
FREE OF CHARGE BEFORE THE END OF APRIL. If you are interested, please
