Abstract

Abstract Body

Background: Peer-reviewed medical journals are essential media for the publication of articles relevant to General Practice/Family Medicine. They are the means to disseminate original research results and discuss available evidence. However, many colleagues find writing and submitting a scientific paper a challenge.

Target group: Our intended audience is interested in research or medical writing, may have some experience and wants to improve their writing and submission skills. More experienced authors are welcome to share their expertise.

Didactic method & topics: In an interactive online session, we focus on the preparation, submission and revision of manuscripts to be published in peer-reviewed medical journals. We discuss the general presentation of research articles and discuss (how to prevent) common errors. Participants can enter their questions using the 'chat' function of the teleconferencing software. We will discuss these questions at regular intervals and at the end of the presentation. A handout of the presentation will be made available for all participants.

If there is sufficient time, we can address (an) optional topic(s) at the participants' request. Examples are the peer review process; convincing Cover Letters, adequate Abstracts; informative Titles; choosing the right Journal, including Open Access journals; Authorship; potential conflicts of interest; responding to Reviewers; or any other topic.

Objectives: After the workshop, participants have expanded their knowledge and have received practical advice ('tips & tricks') to prepare a manuscript for publication in a peer-reviewed medical journal.
