Further details are available from Stephen Hancocks (e-mail: \u00a0stephen.hancocks@bda.org<\/a>).<\/p>\n

The workshop will focus on practical skills required to develop an academic writing style: need to follow a journal\u2019s guidelines for authors to the letter, the peer-review process, plagiarism, publication ethics, how to write for scientific journals etc. Practical sessions\u00a0will help the delegates to understand how papers and articles submitted to scientific journals are reviewed and assessed by editors and their teams.
