Working with others is one of the joys and frustrations of publication writing. When teams work actively, collaboratively, and well, they produce high-quality publications. Without good and substantive collaboration, quality and timelines can suffer. Disagreements about authorship and subpar contributions may decrease quality and increase working time. The two presentations in this session will focus on strategies for forming and keeping a collaborative team, and tactics for managing author contributions and avoiding or mitigating authorship disputes. The session will end with an open, interactive discussion of challenges and best practices in publications writing.

Learning Objective : At the conclusion of this session, participants should be able to:
  • Describe strategies for creating productive collaborations
  • Identify tactics for resolving authorship questions and maintaining momentum
  • Discuss practical solutions for challenges in publication writing
