How to Outline Your Scientific Research Paper

This video covers how to outline a scientific paper. Outlines provide an overview of essential elements necessary in a scientific paper and help the scientific author organize their material to create a logical presentation of their research before getting into the nitty gritty of writing the narrative. Starting with an outline is particularly important for inexperienced writers. I show how to use the outlining function in Microsoft Word and illustrate the process with an example.

This is incredibly useful for students like myself.
Could you perhaps create links in your description boxes in your videos where you allow access to your presentation material. This is a very very useful outline.

When should I start writing? After finishing the experiment? Before starting? Does writing help to correct/develop experiments?
