The Vitae NW Hub and Bangor University are delighted to bring this workshop to you facilitated by the excellent Inger Mewburn. All researchers should be publishing regularly. The job market is extremely competitive in academia and your CV should show evidence that you are making an impact on your field. Exposing your work to peer review can give you more confidence about the robustness of your findings and your writing. In this workshop we will look at a 'fast track' method for getting a journal article together from work you already have. We will explore some publishing strategies and do a series of exercises designed to help you give your article focus and touch on the tricky subject of sharing authorship. Lastly we will talk about some alternative writing techniques which may speed up the process of producing an article.
