We can develop and run workshops on a number of publishing topics, as well as hold more general presentations on specific topics. These include:
For Researchers
As a scientist, being able to communicate thoughts, ideas and research findings, as well as the thought process behind them, in a clear way to your peers is critical in establishing your scientific reputation. We conduct several workshops to provide you with the necessary training and skills so that you can excel in communicating science.
- Writing and publishing scholarly papers.
These three workshops offer an opportunity for students, researchers, clinicians and those from pharmaceutical companies involved in writing research to gain an in-depth understanding of scholarly publishing and how to develop, write and prepare a scientific paper for publication. They are available for Basic, Intermediate and Advanced levels.
- Effective Communication in Science
A series of workshops which bring participants together for intensive hands-on sessions that will improve their writing or presentation skills. These can be run individually or a series. There is a choice of the following workshops:
- Writing scientific papers
- Preparing Posters

- Personal Branding
The Academic world is undergoing significant evolution, not only through online publishing, but also with the increasing use of social media by researchers. So, how can you improve your reputation and influence within a specific peer group or field of research.
