Scientific Writing: Turning the blank page into a manuscript
Workshop in cooperation with PIER Education Platform.
Dates & Times: March 25 & 26, 2024; 9am-4pm
Location: Bldg. 61, room 116a, Luruper Chausseee 149
Trainer: Dr. Carsten Rohr
Info & registration: via indico
Content: In this course, you will be introduced to the process of writing a scientific paper. In order to deepen and apply this knowledge, you will also actually produce a manuscript based on your research data (and one that might serve as the foundation for a journal submission).
A-Z of scientific writing:
- Developing a clear main message
- Priority setting in the writing process
- Structure and logical flow of the text
- Create meaningful graphics
- Memorable introduction and abstract
- Do's and Don'ts of AI Tools in writing
- How to develop a daily writing routine
- Efficient communication with co-authors
Given that this is a hands-on seminar, you need some (analyzed) data that can serve as the foundation for a journal article. Please also bring some scientific texts written by you (e.g. Bachelor or Master thesis, as well as any published or upcoming papers) to the seminar.
