If you have a question about this talk, please contact Dr Eric Rees.

The seminars are open to all, and research students at CEB and MedImmune are especially invited to attend. The talks will be about 30-45 minutes long, and questions are encouraged which open up new avenues for discussion. Tea and biscuits will be provided.

George Orwell’s Politics and the English language; EB White’s The Elements of Style; The Chicago Manual of Style; checklists; template documents; How to Write a Scientific Paper. Endless miles of text have been written in the effort to promote better writing… and some of it is worth reading. In this talk I will recommend some good sources to inspire better writing – mainly aimed at research students.
