Join us for the Life Science Writing Club in the new Life Science Building!

Bildet kan inneholde: skrifttype.

Target group

All researchers, Postdocs and PhD-candidates within life sciences are welcome to participate in one or more sessions. 

About the event

Life Science Writing Club is a series of afternoon Shut Up & Write sessions where you will get a chance to focus on your own writing, as well as to meet other researchers across disciplines.

No registration required, but we do have limited places. First come, first served!

How does it work?

1. We meet up at the start time (or in the breaks).

2. We spend first 30 minutes setting up our writing place, chatting, getting a cup of coffee or tea. A light meal will be served.

3. We then follow the Shut Up & Write method structure: 45 minutes of only working (writing, reading, taking notes,...) followed by 15 minutes of only not-working (chatting, checking phone, getting coffee, having a break).

Writing sessions' structure:

  • 16:00 Shut Up & Write opens. Get some coffee, food, and get comfortable.
  • 16:30 – 17:15 Writing
  • 17:15 – 17:30 Taking a break
  • 17:30 – 18:15 Writing
  • 18:15 – 18:30 Taking a break
  • 18:30 – 19:15 Writing
  • 19:15 – 19:30 Finishing up

We are looking forward to seeing you there!
