A writing workshop designed to help students communicate more effectively and persuasively in various scientific genres.

In the second part, we will consider how the reception of ideas is affected by “beautiful evidence,” focusing on visual design in formats such as web pages, powerpoints, and charts. Final collaborative projects will be tailored to participants’ interests. Enrollment Limit: 14.
