‘How to Write a Scientific Paper’

“… it is difficult to do good science, write good scientific papers, and have enough publications to get future jobs.” – so wrote E. Robert Schulman 0f Charlottesville, Virginia, US, in an article for the Annals of Improbable Research, vol. 2, no. 5, 1996, entitled ‘How To Write A Scientific Paper’.

The difficulties, it seems, continued – for eleven years later another article appeared as an editorial in the Indian Journal of Surgery – ‘How to write a scientific paper’.

And now another opportunity has arisen for those who need to learn how to write a scientific paper. This time in the form of 3 day intensive course with formal lectures and interactive sessions – it’s entitled  ‘How to Write a Scientific Paper’ and runs from 18th – 20th September, 2013, at the Dolmen Hotel, Qawra, Malta.
