Objective of the course is to teach to the student the process that leads from the writing of a scientific manuscript until the publication of the work in an international journal with a peer review system
No pre-requisites are requested
Scientific research without publication and dissemination of the results obtained is the negation of the intellectual and practical effort requested and is contrary to progress and evolution.
The aim of the course is to provide suitable answers to the following issues:
- journal selection: where to submit the manuscript? (IF, readability, letter, full paper)
- writing the introduction: state of art and novelty of the results proposed
- writing results and discussion: what to say and what to exclude
- writing the conclusions: the art of being concise and incisive
- writing references: careful selection and ethics
- peer-review process: preparation of the revised version of the
manuscript and reciprocal interaction with the editor
The exam consists in passing a multiple choice test
To pass the exam the student is requested to respond correctly to more than half of the questions
