AB Essentials  of  Writing  Biomedical  Research  Papers  grew  out  of  a  course  in  scientific  writing  given  to  postdoctoral  fellows  in  cardiovascular  research.  The  course  was  started  by  Julius  H.  Comroe,  Jr.,  M.D.,  the  founder  and  first  director  of  the  Cardiovascular  Research  Institute  at  the  University  of  California,  San  Francisco.  Since  1978,  when  I  began  teaching  this  course,  I  have  been  assessing  writing  problems  in  drafts  of  research  papers  and  discovering  which  principles  of  writing  authors  need  to  consider  to  make  their  writing  clear.  In  addition,  I  have  been  adapting  drafts  of  papers  by  young  authors  into  examples  and  exercises  that  illustrate  these  writing  principles.  The  result  of  these  efforts  is  this  book.
