ESU Course 27: How to write a paper for publication
Chair: F. Montorsi, Milan (IT)
 
 
Aims and objectives: Why should I invest a lot of my time in writing scientific papers? There are a lot of good reasons for this and the course will start by describing them all. All most important aspects of scientific writing will then be discussed: What are the available publication types, how to choose the target journal, how to identify authors. The “How to do it” for a scientific paper will represent the core of the course. A publication type will be taken as a case study and the whole writing process will be described. Mechanics and tips including referencing options, journal style, do’s and don’ts will be covered. All details regarding how to submit a paper will also be discussed. In addition, how to deal with reviewers’ comments will be considered. The post acceptance for publication phase will be discussed including checking proofs. In summary attendees are expected to leave the course with the knowledge of the fundamental requirements to be successful in having a scientific paper accepted from a major journal.
