Scientific Writing & Publishing

Scientific writing and publishing is part of the regular scientific work. It is the goal and task of learning at universities, since scientific debates are predominantly conducted in written form. Academic degrees require the completion of a final thesis in text form. Later in one's career, published articles significantly influence career opportunities and continue to help attract research funding. Well-structured and well-written texts positively influence the acceptance rate of manuscripts and thus contribute to career development.
