Writing framework/template
- Identify combination of junior and senior authors for introduction
- Divide analysis into sub-headings
- Assign combination of junior/senior authors to each sub-heading
- Each sub-heading group should provide details of methodology & discussion of results
- Bi-weekly updates/reports from each ‘section’ deposited to central writing depot
- Minimal subheading report should consistent of a skeleton outline of each subheading giving further sub-headings/groups, each expanded as writing progresses
- A core team of writing collaborators will pull together final manuscript by circulating and editing until all main authors are satisfied
- Draft is then circulated to relevant senior faculty for additional input
- New ‘final’ draft is then circulated to entire writing subgroup and then to collaborators for author approval and additional comments
