|
| 2018/11/16 - 2018/11/16 | The skill of writing a conference abstract and getting it accepted at a scientific meeting ¿ is highly prized, but rarely
taught. This one-day course focused on this skill, and in particular on the process of writing. It aimed to give doctors and
researchers the confidence and motivation to present their data at conferences. The course has been developed by Dr Mark Pickin
in consultation with Tim Albert, based on the principles of his highly successful writing courses.
