This second part of the Wiley workshop on the 27th is only open to PhDs of the LIC and will involve more hands-on components on writing a paper as well as a possible consultation on a paper that you are currently writing (please sign up for this in the registration form). Both parts of the course can be done independently, but it is highly recommended to follow both of them.
The second part is limited to 20 participants and registration will be done on a first-come-first-serve basis. Registration is open unitl June 6th.
This second part will count as 4 hours of transferable skills for the graduate school.
Programme June 27th
| 09:00 - 10:00 | Lisa Smith: Reading and Structuring a Scientific Paper (The typical parts of a peer-reviewed article; best practices in preparing these) |
| 10:00 - 10:15 | Break |
| 10:15 - 11:45 | David Peralta: Scientific Writing (Writing tips; Grammar and Language, Storytelling, Optimizing Titles and Abstracts) |
In the remaining time, you can have manuscript consultations with the editors. Each consult will be 20 min. To facilitate the consultations, you need to hand in the writing that you want to discuss. This Word document must have at least a title and an abstract. Manuscript drafts that have additional components don't have to be complete (e.g., part of the intro, some results/discussion, some references). For the abstract, you can also put in tentative/ideal results, if these are not available yet. The documents must be sent to s.m.hacker@lic.leidenuniv.nl before June 6th.
