Dear all

We are continuing the success from earlier years, a seminar in Scientific Writing May 20-21, 2025, in the extended CCBIO/Harvard INTPART collaboration. Registration deadline is February 1.

Learn how to:

  • Organize ideas, results and messages in a scientific paper
  • Improve titles and abstracts
  • Present a clear problem statement
  • Use punctuation, grammar and numbering in a text
  • Write an informative and convincing cover letter

The course will also present and discuss what is good research communication.

Even with the introduction of AI, there is something to learn for all of us! We strongly encourage students at all levels, including postdocs, to prioritize this and attend! Senior staff are also very welcome. The seminar is also open to national and Nordic visitors.

Lecturers:

  • Christine Møller, an experienced lecturer in medical and scientific writing with many years of experience as assistant editor of APMIS (Acta Pathologica Microbiologica et Immunologica Scandinavica).
  • Randy Watnick, assistant professor at the Vascular Biology Program, Harvard Medical School.
  • Media Advisor Marion Solheim at our Faculty of Medicine.
