Workshop details
Review a manuscript (provided), identify its faults and suggest improvements, write respond to the referees’ comments
Participants will be divided into small subgroups. During the first part of the workshop each group will be given a manuscript to study and will be expected to highlight its strengths and weaknesses. With guidance from the workshop leader, participants will then suggest how to improve the manuscript. Each group will present their findings about the manuscript and the workshop leader will record and correlate the groups’ findings for a final summary. The last 25 minutes of the workshop will be a guided group discussion of how to deal with the referees’ comments received, after a manuscript has been submitted for publication.
Write an abstract; discuss the covering letter
During the the workshop, the groups will prepare an abstract from the provided manuscript and develop a covering letter for submission. The groups will then come together for a guided discussion of their work.
The trainers are researchers with many peer-reviewed publications, and professional medical writers, all with wide experience in data presentation at international meetings and writing scientific and medical papers for publication in peer-reviewed journals.
