Upcoming event Part of series: ½¿É«µ¼º½ Skill Builder Series
Join us for an online webinar designed to help postgraduate and early-career researchers craft clear, compelling, and impactful abstracts. Whether you’re preparing a conference or event submission, a journal article, or any other scholarly output, this session will demystify what makes an abstract stand out.
In the two hour webinar, you’ll hear directly from conference abstract reviewers, journal editors, and seasoned academics as they share insights into the purpose, structure, and essential ingredients of a strong abstract.
This interactive session will also give you the chance to analyse real abstracts, exchange feedback, and sharpen your critical review skills—all in a supportive, hands-on environment.
