Workshop paper
R

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone has any advice or even examples of this. Basically I have to write a one page paper for a PhD workshop. I have seen some other papers written by 2nd/3rd year PhDs and they are usually along the lines of, Introduction, Method, Results, Conclusion. However I am only 4 months into my PhD so I can't really do that.

The idea of the workshop is simply to get PhD students from institutions close by and in my field and present what we are doing. So I know that this workshop is relevant for me even though I am 4 months in. I am just struggling to find something to write about after the Introduction and Method (given that my method is just 'how I am intending to do this').

Has anyone done anything like this? Any example papers that are along this line?

Thank you

Martin

Grammar
R

Hi,

I am a Computer Science Graduate currently in my first year of a Physics PhD. My supervisor often asks me to do some written work, for example this week I had to do a book review for the AGU EOS journal. Every time I submit anything to him he comments on my grammar. I was never under the impression that I was that bad, but it takes me so long to write 800 words since I am conscious of it, that I dread to think how long it will take me to write my thesis.

Has anyone else had something similar to this? Especially in the sciences? If so, any ideas of a good book or way of trying to figure out what is going wrong?

Thank you
