Scientific writing: structure, language and style (online)
Manuscripts must be clear and concise and written in a manner that is appropriate for that particular style of document.
This workshop covers how to structure an original research paper, designing and planning your article, how to articulate your argument, what to highlight, good practice and what to avoid. The session will cover language, style and tone, using selected examples from the existing literature.
It includes a set of resources that participants can explore in their own time and consists of short lectures, discussions, individual exercises and anecdotes from the instructor's own experience of writing and publishing articles.
After this workshop, participants will have:
- an understanding of what is expected of them regarding writing style and structure
- analysed and discussed examples of clear, concise scientific writing
- been given a range of resources to explore in their own time
