Delegates will learn first-hand from editors of the International Urogynecology Journal how to structure a manuscript, how to use reporting guidelines – including ethical considerations – and how to avoid traps like salami publications and plagiarism. In the second part delegates will take the role of a reviewer. They will learn how to review a manuscript and how to write a good review which will be helpful to the authors and the editor. The workshop will feature short presentations, interactive group work and extensive question and answer sessions.
