The title and abstract are the first thing readers (and editors) see and based upon these, they decide whether or not they want to keep reading. At this workshop, we want to help you “sell” your paper and get the most out of your words. You will learn to create an effective title that is both engaging and informative and prepare a concise abstract that includes the most important information about your paper. We will talk about the key moves to include in the abstract and look at the type of language that is commonly used. We will also look at the overall structure of research papers and go through resources you can use to make your writing more idiomatic and smooth.
