The following are written comments about the seminar (on file):
•	Great teacher – personable, knowledgeable, entertaining.
•	Enjoyed listening to [the presenter] and learned many new concepts about writing a successful manuscript.
•	Should be mandatory to all graduate students and residents.
•	Excellent presentation and introduction to publications, esp. for fellows and junior faculty. Speaker is highly engaging, entertaining, a pleasure to listen to and learn from; excellent presentation. Wish I had attended this talk four years ago at start of my fellowship.
•	I really enjoyed the presentation, the speaker was great!! We should get this each year.
•	Great presenter with concrete recommendations. Very helpful, can’t wait to apply principles.
•	Excellent presentation and presenter. Great resource for researchers.
•	Very helpful to my scientific work.
•	The presenter has an extensive knowledge of the topic. Use of real-life examples and humor really helped to accentuate the main points and with the presentation of a potentially "dry" topic. I would definitely recommend this course to others.
•	Excellent talk – informative and useful to rising faculty.
•	That was very helpful. I appreciate all your enthusiasm about the seminar. Great applicability and program.
•	Excellent resource for young faculty.
•	This course was extremely valuable to me as a junior faculty member. Throughout the day, I kept thinking how much easier my paper writing would have been as a graduate student and postdoc if I had attended this course earlier in my education. A course like this should be mandatory component of graduate student education.
•	Recommended. Excellent.
•	Met objectives. Great to hear advice from an author/researcher/editor. Very audible/understandable.
•	He is an awesome speaker!
