Different from research reports, scientific papers published in most journals are required to undergo a peer review process. Therefore, how to write a high-quality scientific paper is critical to disseminate the research to your discipline. Even if you do an excellent research, failure to present your results effectively will impair the quality of your research and your contributions to the knowledge in your field. In this seminar, I will mainly cover three aspects of scientific writing.

First, I will present the general: structure (format) of a scientific paper including sections from the title to appendix. Further, I will discuss how to write literature review and a review paper. The final section covers careless citation practices and plagiarism.
