Описание: What if writing scientific papers was faster, easier, and a bit less painful?

This book provides a step-by-step, top-down approach that makes it easier to turn your hard-won results into research papers that your fellow scientists want to read and cite.

I just wrote a (rough) first draft of a paper during a 3-hour flight, and if it wasnt for these teachings, this would have taken me days (if not weeks) -Talayeh Aledavood, James S. McDonnell Postdoctoral Fellow, University of Helsinki

The books systematic approach builds on what Ive learned through coauthoring close to 100 research papers with students. Youll learn how to outline your paper from top to down, how to develop your story, and how to think about what to write before you write it. Youll also learn how to deal with many issues that writers of science commonly face, from the fear of the blank page to dealing with critical reviews.

Heres what you get:

A complete step-by-step plan for writing a scientific paper, from choosing which results to include to wrapping up the paper in the Discussion section
Concrete, actionable, and practical advice, from a paragraph-level template for the Introduction to guidance on preparing plots and figures
Lots of writing tips, from placing signposts in your text to shortening and straightening your sentences

This book has been written for the PhD student who is aiming to write a journal article on her research results, but it should also be useful to any scientist who has ever found writing difficult. Whatever the stage of your career, if youd like to learn how to write research papers systematically and efficiently, this is the book for you

About the author

I am a professor of computational science and an experienced academic with around 100 published papers. My research is interdisciplinary, to say the least: I have studied the social fabric of smartphone users, the genetic structure of ant supercolonies, the connectome of the human brain, networks of public transport, and the molecular biology of the human immune system, to name a few. So one could say that I have a broad range of scientific interests (or that I simply cannot choose). But thats exactly the way I like it
