At the end of the course, you will (1) be familiar with major features of scientific journal papers; (2) understand the process of submission, peer review, and journal publication; and (3) understand the history of and rationale for key features of scientific writing and publication. You will also have explored new techniques for efficient and effective writing and revision in your own practice.
