  I thought that some of you folks on this list who are interested in
scientific writing would be interested in this:



*********


Greetings:

In today’s dynamic world of scientific publishing, the pace of change
can leave even the most seasoned researchers and editors wondering how
best to communicate scientific knowledge to a diversified and growing
audience. The underlying principals of scientific publishing remain
largely unaltered, yet new technologies and evolving editorial
procedures have remade the landscape in important ways.



On *Thursday, April 12, at 2 p.m. Eastern *(11 a.m. Pacific), Copyright
Clearance Center warmly invites you and your colleagues to join us for a
*free Beyond the Book conference call discussion *about these and other
issues with *Barbara Gastel*, co-author of the latest edition of */How
to Write and Publish a Scientific Paper,/ *widely considered as “the
Bible” for science writers (http://www.greenwood.com/catalog/GP3040.aspx).



Dr. Gastel will address questions on a range of issues impacting today’s
scientific publishing world, including writing clearly across cultures
and media; writing science in English as a foreign language; providing
peer review; and how to work with the media. A physician by training,
Dr. Gastel is also editor of /Science Editor/, the periodical of the
Council of Science Editors, and an associate professor of integrative
biosciences, humanities in medicine, and biotechnology at Texas A&M
University, where she coordinates the master's degree program in science
and technology journalism.



Academics and researchers, as well as authors and editors of scientific
papers, should gain a wealth of insights from one of the industry’s
leading thinkers on this exciting Beyond the Book conference call. We
hope you will want to join us.
