----- [Ticket fee will be fully-refunded after attending]-------

In this workshop, we will refer to Sir Henry Dale and MRC Career Development fellowships and consider writing techniques, such as key term repetition, writing a concise and clear lay summary and research summary (and how the two summaries differ), and producing a concise and compelling ‘Impact Summary’ section.

The workshop will be highly interactive and will include practical group work sessions where participants can analyse and discuss extracts.
