Description:

This workshop is suitable for PhD students of the Life Sciences and Chemistry.

Writing scientific manuscripts is rewarding but can also turn out to be a difficult task for the beginner. This interactive workshop gives assistance to Ph.D. students who are facing the challenge of writing a scientific paper or a thesis.

The participants will be guided through the entire process of scientific writing, step by step. The workshop starts with the first drafts of the scientific story, deals with the generation of figures and texts, and intensively discusses the contents and logic that reviewers expect from a good manuscript. The importance of interactions with supervisors and co-authors will be pointed out and, finally, problems with writing or publishing will also be dealt with. We will develop a toolbox that makes scientific writing much more efficient and rewarding.

Participants are asked to bring along their laptops (fully charged and/or with power cable!) to work on small texts. Some preparatory work (30 minutes) is required and will be announced.

With your registration you are required to accept the terms and conditions for participation.
