It is not poor science that kills many scientific papers; rather, it is a lack of clarity and continuity. In this webinar series, Dr. Thomas Annesley will use examples from several sections of a scientific paper to show participants how to add clarity and continuity to their scientific papers. Part I will focus on the title, abstract, and introduction. Part II will focus on methods, results, and figures. Part III will focus on tables, the discussion section, and responding to reviewer comments.

After attending these webinars, participants will be able to add greater clarity to papers, develop strategies to heighten the impact of their papers, and more effectively tie the various sections of a manuscript together.
