About this talk

The UK EQUATOR Centre’s Publication School is designed for early-career researchers and students with limited experience leading the writing for academic manuscripts. It aims to give you a smooth writing process that results in a published article that is fit for purpose. The course is delivered by methodological and writing experts from the UK EQUATOR Centre and Centre for Statistics in Medicine. Through group work, discussion, and practical exercises, we cover everything you need to plan, write, and publish your health-related research study. Course fees include a light lunch and refreshments each day. Our in-person Publication School is highly interactive, with all-group discussion and small-group exercises and discussion. We do not record the sessions and are unable to offer live streaming. Participants receive an electronic course workbook with all notes and exercises. Topics covered: Planning your message and audience Negotiating authorship Choosing a journal and avoiding predators Good writing style and habits What to write where: recipes for a successful title, abstract, introduction, methods, results, and discussion Using reporting guidelines Revising your work for simplicity, clarity and completeness Writing effective cover letters Submission and dealing with peer review Disseminating your article after publication
