Abstract writing workshop with Dr. Rory Waterman

March 06, 2024
5:00 PM
Room: Jeffords 234

About the workshop:

The workshop will review some abstract basics before participants explore features of example abstracts to see various practices at work. With these ideas in mind, the balance of the workshop time is spent on constructing (or reviewing participants’ drafts) abstracts for future submission—ideally for SACNAS NDiSTEM! Participants with any level of experience in abstract writing (or timeline for submission) are welcome.
