§ 1 st Draft: § Main skeleton (paper flow) § Simple sentences § Very very quick draft § 2 nd Draft: § Coherence (flow check) § Enhance the sentences § Never send the 1 st draft to your supervisor 6

§ A good literature survey is critical before creating ideas and doing simulations § Stop checking the literature while writing the paper § Start with most technical sections (system model + method) § End with Conclusion, Abstract, and Introduction (update the literature survey) 7

§ Main skeleton (paper flow) § Simple sentences § Very very quick draft (Do NOT be perfectionist) 8

Template II § Abstract § Introduction § System Model § Material § Method § Numerical Results & Discussion § Conclusion 9

§ One paragraph = One idea § Order of sections and paragraphs defines the flow 10

§ Do NOT attempt to write very complex sentences 11

§ Good writing communicates an idea clearly and effectively § Complex ideas don’t need complex language § Do NOT spend time to write stylish (2 nd or 3 rd draft) 12

1. Cut unnecessary words 2. In general use active voice (there are exceptions) 3. Write with verbs: avoid turning verbs into nouns 4. Do NOT bury the main verb § Example: «This paper provides a review of the basic tenets of cancer biology study design, using as examples studies that illustrate the methodologic challenges or that demonstrate successful solutions to the difficulties inherent in biological research. » «This paper reviews cancer biology study design, using examples that illustrate specific challenges and solutions. » 13
