PCHRD said the workshop mentors are medical research writing experts here and abroad such as Dr. Jose Florencio Fabella Lapeña, Jr., Dr. Wilfred CG Peh, , and Dr. Cecilia Maramba-Lazarte.

Three months after the workshop, participants are expected to publish their improved journal manuscripts in peer-reviewed journals and contribute to the dissemination of Filipino research information.
