Using a very practical approach, the most important aspects of writing a ‘paper’ will be discussed and many questions related to writing will be answered:
-How do I plan the project ‘paper writing’ so that I am most efficient?
-Do I already have enough results for a publication?
-How do I structure my paper so that it becomes cogent and interesting?
-What sections is a paper composed of?
-What information should each section contain, i.e. how do I write a catchy ABSTRACT, an interesting INTRODUCTION, a clear METHOD and a convincing RESULTS section and how do I discuss my data in the DISCUSSION?
-What structural and stylistic means can I use so that my readers can easily follow the development of ideas in my manuscript?
-What’s the perfect journal for my paper and what should I pay attention to when submitting the manuscript there?
-How do I react to comments from the journal or if my manuscript is rejected?
-How do I prevent or solve writer’s block?
- Objective (expected results of study and acquired competences)
-
After the seminar the participants will know how to easily and efficiently develop a conclusive and easy to read scientific paper.
