Experts for Media

A resource for journalists to find stories and sources.

At Asia Research News, we have a strong network of researchers at institutes throughout Asia and beyond. Every so often, we pick a topic that we believe will interest journalists and invite research institutions to nominate their experts in that topic. Journalists are welcome to contact researchers directly, or reach out to us if you need help finding a source. More researchers are available on our Researchers page

A service for registered journalists.

WOMEN IN RESEARCH

We have listed more than 90 experts from 16 countries are prepared to speak with the media about their research and women in STEM.

 


Asia Research News was a valuable resource for my story on gender equality in China's science industry - part of the South China Morning Post's International Women's Day 2022 series. Thank you ARN, and your extensive network of researchers, with special thanks to those who kindly helped with my exploration of why there are so few women in China’s top science institutes, and recent measures meant to bridge the gender gap.

“The Asia Research News team have been fantastic to work with on our advertorial. They took all our comments on board, and were able to smoothly guide the interviews and exchanges with our researchers. The resulting magazine pages look attractive and the content of the magazine as a whole is very interesting. It’s great to see research highlights from institutions across Asia.”

I think the article is well written by these folks, considering the otherwise 'dry' nature of the research.
