Reflection on the Matyjaszewski Lab Webinar Series and the Rise of Webinars in Polymer Chemistry

Webinar series are helping our community of polymer scientists to stay engaged and connected, despite the cancellation of in-person meetings and the periodic closure of laboratories to contain the spread of the coronavirus pandemic. The sustainable and inclusive character of these virtual events make them valuable learning and networking opportunities. As organizers of the Matyjaszewski Lab Webinar Series, we share herein our experience, highlighting the benefits of virtual meetings and providing a short guide for webinar organizers. Researchers, particularly young scientists, are encouraged to organize such virtual events to broaden their skills and strengthen their professional network.
