Sitting in a coffee shop writing about toxicology and what I learned forty years ago. Working in the lab late at night a favorite songs was Time After Time by Cyndi Lauper. It's playing now and I am near tears. Thank you for the music. #sciencewriting #music

AI can polish our texts and speed up routine writing but in science the responsibility for words remains ours. The key is to use AI as a partner to learn and improve, not as a shortcut.

💡 What I've learned: the diff between funded and unfunded grants isn't just the science - it's writing taking the 🧠 reviewer mindset into account. I can help scientists understand reviewers & put their best proposal forward.

That sounds like an amazing course! 🪐📚 Editing is key in science writing. As Isaac Asimov said, "Writing, to me, is simply thinking through my fingers." What tools will you focus on? #ScienceWriting #
I'm teaching an online, asynchronous class on editing science writing! Over six weeks, we’ll look to the worlds of journalistic editing, fiction editing, and academic editing for essential tools to ensure that a piece of science writing works from beginning to end. www.the-efa.org/product/deve...
