The literal fear of a blank page, writing inhibitions and difficulties finding the central theme can put a strain on the writing process of a research paper or dissertation. The GRC Writing Lab can help you through difficult phases of your PhD and postdoc by helping you to improve your own writing process so that you can continue to work on your texts with pleasure. Please note: correcting and revising your text is not part of our support.
A coaching session lasts up to 30 minutes and takes place online. After registering, you will be contacted by one of our writing coaches to set up a virtual meeting.
The GRC Writing Lab is only for doctoral and postdoctoral researchers at UZH (or directly associated with UZH).
