Good writing and communication skills are essential in many areas of science and medicine. Good scientific writing can help you with recording your observations, structuring your thinking and organising and explaining your work.

In this short talk within a larger session on writing and publishing, we will think about why good and clear writing is important to readers and to journal editors and we will consider how to write in a way that is appropriate, concise, engaging and easy to follow.
