Early-career Researchers in Integrated Care: tips and tricks to effectively publish

Abstract

Background: Publishing is an essential part of the research process and being an academic. However, writing research papers requires knowledge of the special requirements set for a publication and can be very competitive. Early-career researchers especially may ponder 'how do I write a clear and concise paper that attracts the attention of journal editors?'. Aims and Objectives: Participants will have the opportunity to learn • how to effectively write and structure a paper • how to develop a publishing strategy that supports one's career goals • how to choose the right journals and other publications to fit one's strategy, preferred audience and topic Format (timing, speakers, discussion, group work, etc): The 60-min-long workshop will be recorded via video and posted on the Early-career Researchers in Integrated Care webpage for other members to access in the future. As well, highlights will be captured by rapporteur, and delivered as a sharable resource/output. The workshop will be led by 1-2 ERIC leads as well as a representative of IJIC. An interactive small group element will allow the participants to help each other to define their target audience and publishing strategy. Target audience: The audience may include young professionals (0-5 years in the field) working or interested in advancing IC in their local context, or early career researchers (masters, PhDs or post-doctoral students) who are interested in learning tips and tricks to help them drafting their first abstract or manuscript submission. Learnings/Take away: The participants will learn about different forms of publications (journals and other scientific publications, books, blogs, policy/grey papers, social media etc.), the opportunities they provide, and how to select the ones suiting their personal publishing strategy. They know the basic structures of an abstract and a journal paper and awe aware of the current publishing trends in the field of integrated care.(Mudi)Health Services Administration; UK & Ireland.
