During an appointment at the Scientific Writing Centre, you can discuss your queries about scientific writing or talk though a plan or draft assignment with a paid, postgraduate Scientific Writing Mentor. You can ask mentors about approaches to all types of scientific writing including lab reports, abstracts, research projects, lay summaries, scientific essays, literature reviews and writing essays in exams.  However, please note that mentors do NOT offer proofreading or advise on content/subject matter.
