Resident & Fellow Section - Author Guides

Having identified a clinical case, it is time to start writing.  Having a mentor is very helpful, but also variable.  How is the manuscript structured?  What information should be included?  What writing style is appropriate?  A lot of this information can be found in the Author Center.

However, the Resident and Fellow Editorial Board thought additional tools could make it easier for new authors to overcome all the first-manuscript hurdles in order to just start writing.  We have therefore created these 1-page Author Guides with writing tips for each of the three most common Resident and Fellow section categories.  These guides are based around published articles in their respective categories so potential authors can see examples of the specific principles the guide focuses on. 

The goal of these guides is to provide general advice for anyone getting started on a case report with just a few pieces of advice to point you in the right direction.  Avoiding common mistakes will allow the reviewers to focus more on the case itself and increase your chance of getting published.
