The course is free of charge for PhD students at Danish universities (except Copenhagen Business School). All other participants must pay the course fee.

Learning objectives
A student who has met the objectives of the course will be able to:

1. define the purpose of their article
2. select relevant article content
3. structure article content
4. phrase article content in an appropriate academic language

Content
Publication of research results in scientific journals is one among several important means of dissemination within the field of medical research. Writing the first scientific article is often demanding and a big challenge. The purpose of the course is to help PhD students with a medical background to start the writing process well by introducing process and phrasing in scientific article writing. The course participants will be introduced to the purpose of the article, writing methods and processes as well as how to select relevant article content and subsequently how to structure it. The course participants will be introduced to academic English and recommendations from editors of scientific journals will be part of the program. Continuously there will be time to work with one’s own article and integrate what is learned in one’s own material. The teaching methods includes traditional lectures, individual exercises and group teaching.
