Faculty Workshop: Writing for Publication (Carver College of Medicine)

Writing for Publication (for CCOM Faculty)

Presented by: Paul Casella, MFA

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.
  •  how to deconstruct an article and use it as a guide to inform manuscripts for submission. Includes a test of reasoning that authors can apply to the articles they read and the papers they write. 
  • how authors can use writing as a tool for thinking
  • how to implement a systematic approach to the writing process to improve the content and presentation of data and ideas
  • how to address the needs of the reviewers, editors, and readers of a journal to maximize your chances of publication
