Summary:

The programme for this event is structured to support researchers and their publication endeavours. It is based on a similar workshop organised at an international conference in September 2015 which was attended by over 50 participants despite the fact that it was organised for 8:00 a.m. on the day after the conference banquet. The attendees felt it was extremely useful and they learned a lot from the speaker. The session is intended for all researchers (PhD students, Post-Doctoral and academic researchers). Special emphasis will be on writing scientific articles and how to approach the review and publication process.

Scope:

This will be an information-packed session covering all aspects of writing scientific articles; from the abstract to the references, from preparation to publication.

The session topics will include the following :

  • Why is it so important to write a good paper?
  • What is a good paper and how do I write one?
  • How do I decide where to submit my paper?
  • What happens during review?
  • What do I need to do to publish ethically?
