1 Effective Scientific Writing Brian Quinn, PhD
2 My Backgrund EPA funded envirnmental txiclgist & PI Published 17 papers (inc. invited review) & 2 bk chapters N expert in writing Review papers fr several jurnals Aquatic Txiclgy; Cmparative Bichemistry & Physilgy; Chemsphere; Ectxiclgy & Envirnmental Safety; Mlecular Bilgy Reprts; Marine Pllutin Bulletin; Txiclgy In Vitr; Envirnmental Pllutin; Mutatin Research; Water Research Reviewing helps t identity cmmn mistakes
3 Structure f talk WHY? Objectives f scientific writing? WHO? Target audience? WHERE? Jurnal chice & impact factr? WHAT? Hw t structure a paper, where t start? The lgical prgressin thrugh the paper Identify mistakes Explain review prcess fr peer reviewed paper
4 WHY: Objectives f scientific writing WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO WRITE SCIENCE???
5 WHO: Target Audience Write papers t cmmunicate yur results & ideas, but t wh? Scientific peer reviewed jurnal Ppular science magazine Newspapers (Funding agencies lve gd PR!!!) Imprtant t pitch yur results/argument at apprpriate level
6 WHERE: Jurnal Chice Obviusly ne relevant t yur field f research!!!! Check has previusly published similar wrk Different jurnals take different types f paper E.g. larger jurnal: High impact, mre results, larger paper Are yur results gd/nvel enugh? Better t have several smaller papers than ne really big ne??
7 Jurnal Impact Factr Quantitative tl fr evaluating jurnals Frequency with which the "average article" in a jurnal has been cited in a given perid f time. Ggle it! Aquatic Txiclgy V Nature
8 Reviewer cmments: The paper presents a methd t btain primary cell cultures frm gill, mantle and digestive gland frm the freshwater Zebra mussel. It is, t my knwledge, ne f the first papers describing develpment f primary cell cultures frm a freshwater Mllusc. Unfrtunately I dn't think the manuscript, as currently presented, is very well placed in AQTOX. The paper is a methd paper describing basic cell/tissue culture methdlgy and a mre apprpriate venue wuld be a cell culture jurnal like Cell Tissue Research r similar
9 WHAT: Paper structure Abstract Intrductin Materials & Methds Results Discussin Cnclusin Acknwledgements Where t start References **Frmat paper accrding t Jurnal s specific guidelines**
10 Abstract Mini-paper Pssibly mst difficult part f paper writing Therefre leave it till last Cncise and t the pint (less is mre ) Clear structure Will this make the reader want t read yur paper??
11 Intrductin M & M Results Discussin
12 Intrductin Backgrund infrmatin Setting the scene Tendency t waffle Keep cncise and t the pint Yu are nt giving a review giving an verview Shrt, cncise with relevant infrmatin Try t string sentences tgether, nt just series f qutes referenced frm ther papers
13 Intrductin Backgrund infrmatin Setting the scene Tendency t waffle Keep cncise and t the pint Yu are nt giving a review giving an verview Shrt, cncise with relevant infrmatin Try t string sentences tgether, nt just series f qutes referenced frm ther papers Gd backgrund int area, explanatin as t what research dne previusly, utlining knwledge gaps in area.
14 Materials & Methds Imprtant sectin Here yu are prving t the reviewer / audience that the wrk undertaken & results btained are sund Balancing act: Need t put in enugh infrmatin t validate the results, but nt enugh rm t include all details Sample size Statistics, justify use f statistical methds
15 Results Generally shrt sectin D nt describe results, nly present them. Described later in discussin Fllw guidelines fr graphs & tables Dn t shw same results in graph & table T many wrds used t describe results
16 Discussin Put results int cntext Cmpare yur results t thse fund by thers What cntributin are yur results making t the field f research Shw yu have read arund and understand the subject area Make recmmendatins Gd discussin. Adequately cvers all the pints raised in the results sectin and places them in cntext f ther research undertaken.
17 Cnclusin Summarizing the key pints f the paper Nt all jurnals include a cnclusin, check Wuld reading the cnclusin encurage yu t read the entire paper? Cnclusins supprted by the wrk and are relevant
18 Lgical prgressin Keep similar flw thrughut paper Gd layut f paper, easy t fllw and understand. The paper is well written, easy t read and has gd lgical flw This paper cntains valuable results, but is badly structured and difficult t read. Gd backgrund t area, has all necessary infrmatin but is nt easy t read. Als several basic grammatical errrs. The English needs t be checked and the qutes are referenced incrrectly with the inclusin f initials and listed alphabetically instead f chrnlgically. Basic mistake.
