Description

Mastering the art of writing excellent scientific literature reviews and research articles has its unique set of challenges, but it is still an extremely worthwhile investment, especially if you are an aspiring scientist hoping to thrive in the world of research/academia.

The unfortunate news, however, is that many university programmes do not formally teach this skill. As a result, many students tend to struggle with the writing process at the start and find themselves undergoing trial and error to figure out which writing style works best.

This is where I hope my course can help you with.


What’s this class all about?
A Complete Guide To Writing First Class Scientific Papers is designed to guide beginner writers on how to write a high-quality literature review and research article for STEM subjects.

More specifically, I’ll be teaching you how to:

  • Formulate an effective working title

  • Gather information for your essay efficiently

  • Develop the structure and content for your literature review and research article

  • Create top-quality figures

  • Cite your sources using the Harvard referencing style

To facilitate these learning objectives, I’ll be including a number of examples from my own essays that have been awarded First Class so that you can get a clearer idea of the best practices in scientific writing.


How do we know this approach is effective?

I used to struggle a lot with essay writing and was frequently scoring a 2.1 (equivalent to a "B" grade) back in my first year of university. Hence, I was exploring different ways to become a better scientific writer.

Over time, I eventually discovered a number of writing techniques and tricks that allowed me to graduate with a First Class Honours in BSc Biochemistry at Imperial College London. On top of that, I also successfully published a first-author research article titled "An Improved Method for Rapid Detection of Mycobacterium abscessus Complex Based on Species-Specific Lipid Fingerprint by Routine MALDI-TOF" during the final year of my undergraduate degree (in association with the Larrouy-Maumus lab) by applying these learning points.

Thus, having been in the same position as many new writers who are eager to thrive academically, I would love to share all of my resources to make the beginning of your scientific writing journey easier!
