Thank you to Dr. Andrew Polaszek for meeting with two MDPI colleagues at the Natural History Museum, London. Dr. Polaszek is a Section Board Member for the journal Insects MDPI and President of the International Society of Hymenopterists. During his time with MDPI, Dr. Polaszek has published seven articles within Insects and one within Pathogens MDPI. At their meeting, our colleagues spoke with Dr. Polaszek about his experiences working with Insects and the importance of optimising the peer review process within narrower fields of research where there are fewer experts available to review. We look forward to working more closely with Dr. Polaszek in the coming months. #MDPI #AcademicPublishing #NaturalHistoryMuseum #Insects

Earlier this month, Journal Relations Specialist from Serbia office, Gordana Jevtić Dožudić, PhD, met with Prof. Dr. Stephen Schwartz from the Department of Ophthalmology at the Bascom Palmer Eye Institute in Naples, Florida, USA. The meeting, organized on behalf of Medicina MDPI, took place in Florence, Italy. Prof. Schwartz, previously a member of the Medicina Editorial Board, has recently been appointed as the Section Editor-in-Chief of the Ophthalmology section (https://brnw.ch/21wX5KK). The section aims to provide a platform for sharing novel clinical findings through curated, peer-reviewed articles relevant to both general ophthalmic practitioners and subspecialists, contributing to the continuous advancement of quality patient care in ophthalmology. We warmly congratulate Prof. Schwartz on his appointment and wish him much success in leading the Ophthalmology section! #MDPI #Ophthalmology #OpenAccess #AcademicPublishing #AcademicPublishing

All articles in Beverages MDPI (ISSN 2306-5710) Vol 11, Issue 4, are now freely available to access, read and download: https://brnw.ch/21wXb9j COVER STORY: Brewing yeast development is entering a new era, “Biotechnology 3.0”. This article by international researchers highlights the main approaches driving this transition and their respective pros and cons. Genetic engineering enables multiplexed modifications, though its application in Europe remains restricted by regulations and consumer acceptance. Non-GMO strategies, such as adaptive evolution, mimic natural selection to improve fermentation traits, while microbial consortia challenge the classical concept of pure cultures by exploiting cooperative strain interactions. Meanwhile, artificial intelligence is emerging as a powerful tool with which to design and predict yeast “cell factories”, accelerating optimization and fostering brewing innovation. Collectively, these strategies support more efficient, sustainable fermentations and beers with novel aromatic profiles. Read more: https://brnw.ch/21wXb9j #mdpi #openaccess #yeast #research

We are pleased to share an interview with Prof. Dr. Steve W. Lyon, recently appointed Editor-in-Chief of Sustainability MDPI (ISSN: 2071-1050). Associate Professor in Hydrology and Water Resources at The Ohio State University, USA, Prof. Dr. Lyon's postdoctoral research focused on the evolution of land-water interactions in space and time. "I aim to further strengthen the rigor of our review process, enhance the quality of published science, and ensure the journal remains a global platform where interdisciplinary research informs meaningful change in academia, policy, industry, and society." - Prof. Dr. Steve W. Lyon. See the full interview: https://brnw.ch/21wXazZ #mdpi #openaccess #sustainability #research

MDPI publishes Open Access research across a vast range of scientific topics, including biomedical sciences, pharmaceutics and ecology. This month, we gain insights into October’s Top Pick articles, where we explore novel and exciting research articles selected from the journal Birds, Journal of Ageing and Longevity, @Journal of Fungi and Journal of Pharmaceutical and BioTech Industry. Here we learn about the impact of wind farming on bird flight patterns, how in silico data could help the development of monoclonal antibody production, and more.
