Hello fellow Phd people

I can actually see some light at the end of the tunnel with the Phd now and am at the stage of writing the abstract. It has to be 300 words but I am really struggling with this. I have written quite a few conference and paper abstracts before so generally am ok. The problem I am finding is how you summarise separate studies in one 300 word abstract. E.g., samples are different so how is this possible?

Does anyone have any great pearls or wisdom (or chocolate)?

Thanks!

Hi Fluffymonster,

You may get an idea how to write a abstract by using a website given below.

Good luck

Thanks for the link. I have now attempted to summarise 3 3/4 years worth of work into 300 words and am awaiting constructive comments.

I mean from my supervisor! It's still early.
