Come and join us for an relaxed social night via the Zoom Platform. Are Brean, EASE Vice President, will host a short quiz to test your knowledge in the scholarly communication space and then a ‘Quick Fire’ round where we will test how familiar you are with all things EASE by asking you to retrieve information from the EASE website. This will be a race to see who gets to the answer first. All good fun!
