Writing a Scholarly Article for Publication

Facilitator: Dr. Erika Shor

 

The results text narrates the story that the figures tell visually. A well-written results section does not repeat in words what the figures or tables present; it describes the experiments that were performed and the logical connections between them. This session will focus on relating the results text to the figures in a way that tells a compelling scientific story.

The Introduction orients and motivates readers. It must also make a contract with the reader that a question will be answered. Introductions are the most structured part of a paper and readers expect certain elements in a certain order. This session will focus on constructing Introductions with the important elements in the right order.

 

*Please note in your registration if you will be attending the Results Section, Introduction Section or both.
