Many journals\, particularly in b iomedical research\, require reporting guideline use and the submission of a completed checklist alongside a manuscript. However\,researchers are of ten unsure how to find and apply the right reporting guideline. Writers\, editors\, and translators can help to ensure the research articles they wo rk on are compliant.\nThe workshop will combine short presentations\, disc ussion\, and practical exercises\, and will be accompanied by a handout. W e will focus on reporting guidelines for research involving humans or anim als\, such as health research\, psychology\, and veterinary medicine.\nWor kshop outline: \n\nWhat reporting guidelines are\, why they are needed\, a nd how and when they can help.\nUsing reporting guidelines to analyse manu scripts and flow diagrams. \nIdentifying biomedical study designs (explora tory vs confirmatory\, descriptive vs analytic\, observational vs experime ntal\, qualitative vs quantitative\, longitudinal vs cross-sectional). \nC hoosing an appropriate reporting guideline.\nTranslations of reporting gui delines and opportunities to contribute to future translations. \nFitting reporting guidelines into the workflow as writers\, author editors\, journ als\, and peer reviewers. \nDealing with realities: common objections to r eporting guidelines and problems encountered by participants.\n\nLearning outcomes:\n\nUnderstand what reporting guidelines are and how to use them. \nBe comfortable identifying a manuscript’s study design\, recommending an appropriate reporting guideline\, and highlighting missing information to guide the author.\n\nClick the ‘Register’ button at the top of the page. \nAbout the presenter\n \nAfter training in laboratory research and workin g in academic editing\, Jennifer de Beyer joined the EQUATOR Network’s UK Centre at the Centre for Statistics in Medicine (CSM)\, University of Oxfo rd.

It focuses on research reporting\, so that future research is base d on a sound body of evidence.

But in order to deliver ready-to-use documents\, editors and trans lators often have to tidy up the client’s draft first. Tackling this can b e a quick-and-easy way to impress\, but many language professionals lack t he finer points of MS Word\, so they pass up this opportunity. \nBesides p icking up many productivity tips\, you’ll learn and practise how to tidy u p a document by:\n\ndefining and applying styles to create a consistent la yout\; \ncontrolling numbering and bullets\; \napplying headings to genera te the perfect table of contents\; \ndealing with headers and footers in l arge documents with multiple sections. \n\nIf you want to focus on your cl ients’ message rather than on what MS Word does when you’re not looking\, then this one’s for you! Focusing as it does on the practical aspects of t idying up a document rather than on the individual word features\, this wo rkshop is ideal for any language professional who wants to use MS Word mor e efficiently and effectively. Participants should bring their own laptop to the workshop.\nClick the ‘Register’ button at the top of the page.\nAbo ut the presenter\n \nJenny Zonneveld has a business background.
