Springer Nature has expanded its partnership with Cassyni to enhance the integration of online research seminars into its Research Communities platform. The collaboration enables journals across the Springer Nature portfolio to host branded seminars focused on recent issues, key research articles, and calls for papers, facilitating deeper engagement with specialist and interdisciplinary audiences.
The Research Communities platform, developed in partnership with Zapnito, offers an open-access digital space for researchers to connect, share insights, and engage with relevant scientific content. With the enhanced integration of Cassyni, individual journals—from broad-interest titles such as Nature Communications to specialized outlets like Nonlinear Dynamics—can now organize and embed research seminars directly into their web environments. These sessions retain each journal’s distinct identity while extending their reach through promotion across the wider Research Communities network.
This approach strengthens relationships between journals and their readerships while encouraging cross-disciplinary engagement. By supporting real-time scholarly exchange, the platform offers a scalable model for global outreach and community building. The seminars are designed to foster meaningful interaction and sustained visibility for participating journals, contributing to author engagement and content discoverability.
At launch, the initiative will include Communities in Agricultural & Food Science, Astronomy, Cancer, Chemistry, Computational Science, Earth & Environment, Engineering, Genetics & Genomics, Materials, Mathematics & Statistics, Neuroscience, Physics, Social Sciences, and Sustainability.
