Who
About
It is more important than ever that your title, abstract, and table of contents graphic stand out. Without an attention grabbing hook to draw people in, your research article, poster, presentation, preprint, grant proposal (or even this webinar) may be disregarded and tossed in the forgotten pile.
Join Executive Editor, Osvaldo Oliveira Jr. of ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces as he teaches you how to ethically optimize these elements for maximum attention-grabbing impact, including real-life illustrations of both good and bad examples.
This ACS Webinar is moderated by Regiane Bracchi of ACS Publications and co-produced by ACS on Campus.
Agenda
10 Tips for Creating Abstracts with Substance and Style
- Osvaldo N. Oliveira Jr., Ph.D., Executive Editor, ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces
- Moderator: Regiane A. Bracchi, Manager – Latin America, ACS Publications
Featured Speakers
Osvaldo N. Oliveira Jr., Ph.D.
Executive Editor, ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces
Professor, São Carlos Institute of Physics, University of São Paulo, Brazil
Prof. Osvaldo N. Oliveira Jr. obtained his BSc and MSc from the University of São Paulo, and PhD from the University of Wales, Bangor (1990). He has led research into the fabrication of novel materials in the form of ultrathin films obtained with the Langmuir-Blodgett and self-assembly techniques. Prof. Oliveira is a founding member of the Interinstitutional Center for Computational Linguistics (NILC), a leading institute for natural language processing of Portuguese. In recent years, Prof. Oliveira has pioneered the combined use of methods from distinct fields of science, with the merge of methods of statistical physics and computer science to process text, and use of information visualization to enhance the performance of sensing and biosensing. This pioneering work is associated with the merge of nanotechnology with Big Data Analytics and machine learning. Prof. Oliveira is the vice-president of the International Union of Materials Research Societies. In 2006 he was awarded the Scopus Prize, given to 16 Brazilian researchers considered the most productive in terms of papers published and citations.
