Not just a lab report: The recipe for communicating in all research disciplines

Effectively communicating your research findings is an important skill that crosses disciplines. Learn the basic structure and organization of a lab report and how these create the building blocks for writing a successful research-based thesis. In this workshop we will review how to write: clear research objectives and methodologies, descriptive results, and effective discussions. This workshop is for students who have no prior experience with writing lab-reports, and students who want to refine their writing skills in order to prepare for a research-based thesis. Feel free to bring a hard copy of a completed lab report, or one in progress, for an open Q & A session at the end of the workshop.
