Scientific Writing Workshop for Early Career Researchers — •Tracy E. Northup — University of Innsbruck, Department of Experimental Physics

An integral part of being scientists is being able to communicate the aims, methods, and results of our research clearly to others. However, many physicists receive no formal training in scientific writing. In this workshop, we will look at some key principles of scientific writing and discuss steps that early career researchers can take to improve their writing. The workshop will be based on a course that the speaker has taught for PhD students at the University of Innsbruck.

Keywords: scientific writing; early career
