Continuing our series of video interviews, we were joined by Julia Rock-Torcivia, Associate Editor at R&D World and Drug Discovery and Development.

In the first part of this three-part series, Julia explains the scope of the two publications’ coverage and shares the core criteria she uses to decide whether a research story is truly newsworthy for scientists and researchers.

In this video, Julia discusses:
1. The difference between broad R&D coverage and drug discovery reporting
2. The factors that determine whether a story is newsworthy
3. How real-world impact shapes editorial decisions
