Scientific Writing Workshop

This workshop is designed for PhD students and early-career postdocs who wish to strengthen one of the most critical skills for success in science: scientific writing. Writing is not only the primary vehicle to communicate scientific results—it is also one of the key factors that will determine your impact and progression in a scientific career. Unfortunately, it is a skill that is rarely taught at university and is not always easy to master.

Unlike other forms of writing, scientific writing has its own structure, logic, and style. This workshop will guide participants through the key elements of scientific writing, from planning and drafting to publication, while also offering practical tools to communicate complex ideas clearly and effectively.

This year, we are pleased to announce a special session with Professor Javier Aizpurua, who has been among the most highly cited researchers for several consecutive years and has served as an editor of Nanophotonics. He will share his insights on the editorial process, peer review, and what editors look for in a manuscript.
We will also include a peer review exercise, where participants will engage in reviewing each other’s work to gain hands-on experience with the peer review process.
