DESCRIPTION:Dr. Sarah Stauffer\, postdoc researcher and lecturer\, Institu
 te of Psychology\, University of Lausanne\nDescription and objectives\nFor
  PhDs and postdocs\, academic writing is a necessary skill to master. Ofte
 n\, proof of this mastery is measured in the form of publishing in peer-re
 viewed journals. However\, the publication process can be daunting for aut
 hors\, new or experienced. Knowing more about the process can help writers
  better tailor their work to the specific journal sought and increase thei
 r chances of success in publishing.\n\nAfter this workshop\, participants 
 will better understand:\n\n	Who the players are in the publication process
 \n	How to cite their work to avoid plagiarism\, boost credibility\, and su
 pport their arguments\n	How to choose the right journal for their work\n	H
 ow to adapt a paper that has been reviewed to increase their chances of pu
 blication\n	What to include in cover and response letters to best communic
 ate with reviewers and editors\n\nAlthough these topics are germane to man
 y different scientific domains\, this workshop will be aimed at publishing
  in the human and social sciences. APA norms will be referenced as example
 s for citation and avoiding language biases. By the end of the workshop\, 
 participants with all levels of writing and publishing experience should b
 e able to confront the process more confidently in order to increase their
  chances of publication in peerreviewed journals.\n\nApproach\nPresentatio
 n\, discussion\, and interaction in small and large groups will be offered
  to exchange experiences and tailor the workshop to the participants’ le
 vel(s) of experience with the publication process.\n\nTarget audience\nFem
 ale PhD students & Postdocs\n_____________________________________________
