The course focuses on scientific writing (manuscript, abstract and poster) and you will be writing about your own research (but there is no requirement to bring data of your own in order to benefit from the course) to maximize the learning experience and also to make actual progress in your studies. The course includes manuscript writing, poster design and presentation, cover letter writing, abstract writing and popular science writing. The popular science part is covering the skills you need in order to successfully write a popular science summary for e.g. a project plan or to apply for grants and is also helpful for oral presentations. No prior knowledge or experience in scientific writing is required to attend the course, but you will benefit equally from the course if you have published your research before. The course will be given in a venue in the Old Town in Stockholm. Please address ALL questions to: anna.wachtmeister@ki.se or phone: 0707890607 |
