Coming to the Nature Masterclasses on-demand Platform in October 2024.
This updated and enhanced 2nd edition course is for researchers who want to build their ability to write engaging review papers that provide an original synthesis of the current knowledge in their field. 

Review papers are crucial for advancing scientific knowledge by helping researchers to understand the future directions and challenges of scientific disciplines. Participants will explore the foundations of writing a strong review paper, and plan the written content, including its structure, scope and narrative. They will also learn to locate and select the relevant primary literature, create effective display items, and navigate both the solicited and unsolicited routes to publishing a review paper.
