The Improving Scholarly Communication sessions are a three-part series designed to provide you strategies to improve the clarity of your scholarly communications, both written and oral. These workshops are hosted by Paul Casella (Academic/Scientific Editorial Manager; Office of Faculty Affairs and Development) and will take place in-person during the Summer of 2025.
Session 1 - Writing for Publication (Friday, July 25 from 11am-12pm; University Capitol Centre)
A clear and reasoned presentation of ideas is critical to the success of a scientific manuscript. This seminar examines the structures and positions of emphasis in the sentence, paragraph, and sections of the formal study to help authors authorize their claims. Includes a test of reasoning that authors can apply to the articles they read and the papers they write.
This session will also address how authors can use a systematic approach to the writing process to improve the content and presentation of their ideas in a manuscript for submission. Includes suggestions about how to address the needs of the reviewers, editors and readers of a journal to improve your chances of publication.
The remaining sessions in the series are scheduled as follows:
Writing Effective NIH Grant Applications - Friday, August 8 at 11am-12pm
Speaking for Success: Strategies for Effective Medical and Scientific Presentations - Friday, August 22 at 11am-12pm
