Workshop: Writing for Scientific Publication--Dr. Ruth Yanai

Publishing is an important part of the research process, but writing papers is not what attracted most of us to our respective fields.  Learning to write papers with minimal effort and maximum impact will help you for the rest of your career. Participants received general  advice on organizing writing efforts and specific examples of the steps to go through in preparing each section of your paper, and left the workshop with working drafts of their abstracts. Dr. Yanai has lots of useful tips http://www.esf.edu/for/yanai/publishing/default.htm  Cosponsored by WISE, GSA, and ESF Women's Caucus.
