MCF1a Introduction to Manuscript Writing Phillip Leventhal

Description

The goal of the workshop is to give medical writers the confidence to begin writing manuscripts and to improve their chances of getting their manuscripts accepted for publication. After completing the workshop, participants should be familiar with the goals, structure, and content of manuscripts destined for peer-reviewed journals; publication guidelines; simple steps to take to avoid immediate rejection and improve the chance of getting a manuscript accepted; step-by-step process of writing a manuscript; how to select data to include in a manuscript; and how to handle the peer review process both practically and emotionally.
This workshop is intended for medical writers who have little or no experience in writing peer-reviewed manuscripts. No prior experience in manuscript writing is necessary.
