Writing Readably About Research - Professional Education

Research can indeed be complex and hard to understand. However, the writing about it should not add to the difficulty. In this webinar, Barbara Gastel, MD, MPH, who teaches science communication at Texas A&M University, will offer guidance on writing readably about research. As well as presenting general pointers on writing accessibly, the webinar will provide advice on preparing readable papers and proposals. It also will address writing understandably for general audiences and for non-native readers of English. Throughout, examples and guidelines from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control will be integrated. Whichever readerships you generally serve, this webinar can aid in communicating effectively.
