May be repeated for a maximum of eight credits. May also be offered as GEN 8070.
-
3.00 Credits
In this course, graduate students develop manuscript writing skills for publications in the life sciences fields, particularly genetics, biochemistry, and molecular biology. Students develop their existing writing skills through demonstration, practice, and peer editing activities, and learn to consider the needs of the reader by focusing on logical writing structure at all scales, along with clarity and precision in their language. The course addresses how to construct and write all the major sections in a manuscript, including abstract, introduction, materials and methods, results, and discussion, and addresses preparation of figures and tables, supplemental material, submission letters, and response to critiques. References, citations, and plagiarism are also addressed. The course concludes with a module on writing about science for a general audience. May also be offered as GEN 8080.
-
3.00 Credits
Graduate students develop writing skills for proposals to secure funding in the life sciences, such as fellowships and grants, through demonstration, practice, and peer editing activities. Students develop their existing writing skills by improving their grammar, clarity, brevity, and precision, and learn to create a cohesive whole in their proposals by using structure and formatting. Students learn to create an advocate in their reviewer by selling themselves and their project, and by meeting the expectations and needs of the reviewer. This course addresses how to develop an over-arching logical flow to guide their proposal writing, followed by how to construct and write all the major parts of a proposal, including specific aims page, significance, innovation, broader impacts, research strategy, training plan, facilities and equipment, and biosketch. This course also addresses the use and construction of figures and tables in proposals, submission cover letter, and response to reviewer critiques. References, citations, and plagiarism are also addressed. May also be offered as GEN 8090.
