Useful content but audio speed issue
I like the content but the audio speed should be adjusted to avoid making the sound so robotic.

Great topics but very hard to listen
I’m in academia and I love the topics in this podcast, but it is very hard to listen to. The guest usually the one I can’t hear clearly. I need to be in a very quite room to be able to understand.
Please fix it.

Campus Talks: The crucial skill of self-editing for academics

Q: How can writers avoid directionless tinkering and know when to move on from the draft stage?

Writers should follow a clear order of operations centered on the four pillars, understand what the publishing end expects, and use a system that allows them to work on the big-picture elements first, then address smaller refinements later.

Campus Talks: The crucial skill of self-editing for academics

Q: What exactly is manuscript development and what do developmental editors do?

News Talks: Will the next Horizon Europe support 'bigger, better, stronger' global collaboration?

Q: Why was Horizon opened up to non-EU countries, and what are the risks?

Opening up was intended to boost competitiveness and excellence by drawing on global strengths, but it raises concerns about access, competition for scarce grants, and whether dual-use or military-related research should be included.

News Talks: Will the next Horizon Europe support 'bigger, better, stronger' global collaboration?

Q: Will associate countries have influence over Horizon's direction?

They have no formal say in negotiations, but they submit informal views and remain keen to stay involved if the program remains aligned with their priorities and retains transparency about budgeting.
