Effective scientific writing is a two-day programme designed to help young researchers write papers, PhD theses, conference abstracts and reports.

During the course, participants will learn how to:

· Write clear, concise, correct scientific English

· Edit documents effectively for clarity and consistency

· Plan their documents in order to present a convincing scientific argument

· Write clear, effective abstracts

· Give their papers the best chance of acceptance by a target journal

· Improve their awareness of the editorial and peer review process

The course will be highly interactive, and participants will have the opportunity to work on real-life examples of their own papers and abstracts. There will be plenty of time for questions, discussion and personal feedback.
