Scientific Writing Workshop

The two-day workshop will be structured to focus on both fundamentals of writing, and advanced techniques in creating a scientific document. Different types of documents will be discussed, including grants and a range of manuscripts from original studies to case reports. The skills discussed in this workshop will broadly apply to any scientific document. Participants will be introduced to the fundamentals of scientific writing, the structure of a manuscript, common pitfalls and errors, perspectives of different types of readers including reviewers and editors, and how to pick a journal. The format will include didactics, demonstrations, and interactive constructive reviews of participant work.
