To celebrate the 10th anniversary of Wind Energy Science (WES), a special plenary roundtable will bring together leading voices in scholarly communication to discuss how scientific publishing is evolving and where it is heading next. How will AI reshape research communication? What would it take to move toward sustainable models such as diamond open access, benefiting both authors and readers? Will future publications better integrate data, software, and reproducibility? Join us to reflect on these and other key questions shaping the future of scholarly journals.

 

Panelists:

  • Ben Kaube – Co-founder, Cassyni and Kopernio
    Ben co-founded Cassyni, which uses AI to help academics discover and disseminate scholarly research through seminars and video. Prior to Cassyni he founded research tools Kopernio (for improving access to research papers) and Newsflo (for helping academics evidence the societal impact of their research) which are now relied on by millions of researchers. Ben holds a PhD in physics from Imperial College London and was named a Forbes "30 Under 30" for Science and Healthcare in 2020.
  • Helen King – Founder, Innovation Ideas Ltd
    Helen consults on publishing technology through Innovation Ideas Ltd. She writes the PubTech Radar newsletter on AI and emerging tech in academic publishing. She has led digital and AI programmes at Sage, BMJ, and Nature Publishing Group. Originally trained as an archaeologist and historian, Helen has worked in tech for over twenty years and is particularly interested in how AI is reshaping the research and publishing process.
  • Marco Tullney – Head of Publishing Services, Technische Informationsbibliothek (TIB)
    Marco is an expert in sustainable open-access publishing and scholarly communication infrastructure. As project lead in this field, he develops cooperative funding models for diamond open-access journals and contributes to national, European, and international initiatives supporting community-led, non-profit publishing systems. His work focuses on keeping academic publishing open, sustainable, and governed by the research community rather than commercial actors. With a background spanning libraries, open science, and publishing infrastructure, he brings a practical perspective on the future of scholarly communication.
  • Johannes Wagner – Business Development, Copernicus; WES Manager
    Johannes is a business development professional at the open access publisher Copernicus Publications. In his role, he works at the intersection of learned societies, funders, research institutions, and scientific infrastructure across the open science ecosystem. He holds a PhD in geoscience and spent the first half of his career in research and academic exchange, giving him first hand insight into both sides of the scholarly publishing system. Johannes is deeply engaged in questions of how science is communicated and what sustains integrity, transparency, and trust in the scientific record, as the way we interact with science fundamentally shifts.

Moderator:

  • Carlo L. Bottasso – Chair of Wind Energy, Technical University of Munich; Editor in Chief, Wind Energy Science
    Carlo is the founding director of the Wind Energy Institute at Technical University of Munich. He holds a PhD in aerospace engineering from Politecnico di Milano, and he is a past president and vice-president of the European Academy of Wind Energy. He has always been passionate about scholarly publishing, and his term as Editor in Chief of Wind Energy Science gives him countless opportunities to learn the many facets of this fascinating and fundamental component of scientific research.

More information about the DEI meet-up:

At this session we will share our own experiences of DEI (Diversity, Equity and Inclusion) aspects connected to attending and organising events. After presenting the EAWE DEI Committee’s new “EAWE guide for assessing event location suitability from a DEI perspective”, we will talk about events that we may have decided not to attend due to the location, about events at which we may not have always felt safe or included, about events that made a special effort to make us feel safe and included, and how we may have organised events to make them more safe and inclusive.
