Nirmal Mathivanan

As a medical student, I always had a keen interest in scientific writing. But usually, we are never taught about basic things required for research and writing such as plagiarism, journal selection, and different styles of citations. When you step into this industry of medical and scientific writing, you will realize that all these are just primary skills and medical writing is so vast. Turacoz introduced me to basic and advanced techniques to draft a flawless manuscript. Expertise and experience are their foundation, but dedication is their strength. People here put so much effort to make you understand even the tiny things. The content and assignments made me better! Thank you to the trainers. You made this course a wonderful experience. The learning journey with you is helping me a lot
