Description:

Title: Tips on Writing Papers

Speaker: Harry Swinney, Professor Emeritus, Physics Department and the Center for Nonlinear Dynamics, University of Texas at Austin

Abstract: Every researcher wants his or her paper to be read, yet journal articles are often readable only by specialists in a narrow area. Even papers in specialty journals should be written so non-specialists can understand something about the concepts and results. The tips that will be presented in this talk are based on observations of how readers select papers to read and how they decide whether or not to continue reading.  Improving the readability of your manuscripts will lead to more readers and more citations of your work.
