Writing papers

Writing is critical for all aspects of science. The lab has a few resources to help you get started. For example, we have a paper template to help you overcome the "staring at a blank white screen" problem that can make writing a paper for peer-review feel overwhelming. This template is organized like a standard manuscript, broken into sections: Abstract, Introduction, Methods, Results, Discussion. These are then broken into subsections, each of which is labeled to describe what should be written there. This turns the task of writing a paper into a series of smaller, fill-in-the-blanks tasks, which are much more manageable. We also have tips for writing a good abstract here.

Running EEG

If you are running experiments with the lab and collecting EEG data, get familiar with the Guidelines for Running EEG.
