In a world that is full of facts about issues related to science and health, it is important to know how to: present facts accurately, include details about new research, be able to account for multiple sources and shed light on important or new discoveries.
The interactive workshop will be an opportunity for participants to learn the necessary technical skills to write a science and/or health report.
