After finishing this course the researcher will have the following skills:
- Know about the basic ingredients of an acceptable scientific paper and proposal,
- Know about ethical issues regarding reviewing papers and proposals, and

Format
The course provides the basic skills to review scientific papers and abstracts as well as proposals for research projects. The course first introduces the general structure of such documents and the content of "ideal" papers and proposals; which will be used as reference points for the to-be-reviewed papers and proposals. Then, we will introduce the process of reviewing papers and proposal and the structure of the review report. Finally, we will discuss the ethical issues, including dealing with special cases (such as plagiarism) and revealing information from the reviewed document, reviewing process and its outcome.
