With the aim of writing a great scientific article and getting it published, we’ve worked on:
✦ writing and communicating clearly
✦ structuring a paper
✦ highlighting your scientific contribution
✦ common errors
✦ appropriate register and tone
✦ writing a cover letter that makes a convincing case for publishing your paper
✦ responding appropriately (and diplomatically) to reviewer comments
It’s been a pleasure to work with such an engaged and committed group who really worked hard in the workshop sessions. Thank you all for your participation, can’t wait to collaborate with you in the future.
