In this episode of Wildlife By The Numbers, Grant and Matt continue their discussion on writing a scientific paper. They share with us writing the paper backwards by starting with the results, what to avoid in the discussion section, the abstract, title, and realistic number of drafts. Is 15 or 20 drafts a realistic number of drafts? Listen in and discover the answer. Quotes from this episode:"One of the things I see often happen in the discussion is people want to talk about things that are way outside the bounds of a particular study. So the study was designed to answer some specific question, and there's this desire usually to make the study answer questions that are kind of beyond that frame of inference.""...he'll take a piece of the paper out and put in a new document. And that was just a huge help for me because I do get distracted by just the text on the paper and just the volume of text on the paper. So sometimes if I need to focus in on a paragraph or a section, I'll just cut that out and make a new document, and then just put it back in when I feel like I got it right."In a future episode, they will cover choosing where to submit the paper and how to handle the review process.Episode music: Shapeshifter by Mr Smith is licensed under a Attribution 4.0 International License. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/https://freemusicarchive.org/music/mr-smith/studio-city/shapeshifter/
In this episode of Wildlife By The Numbers, Matt and Grant, a duo who has been co-authoring papers together for over a decade, give a candid discussion on publication to share your work. They have a lively discussion of how they write a scientific paper, and dive into the Introduction, Methods, Results, and Discussion sections of a paper sharing how their writing was influenced by their professors as well. They have saved the abstract, editing, proofing, and deciding which journal to submit to for another episode.Quotes from this episode..."Writing is the backbone of what scientists do, and it's extremely important to write up what you're doing and present that in a format that has been reviewed by other scientists. At the most basic level, folks can understand that you wanna share your knowledge. But there's a number of reasons why you want to write a scientific paper, have that go through a a rigorous peer review, and then publish it. One of them is, as I just said, you wanna share the information so others can learn from it and others can build off it and improve and contribute to the field of wildlife biology or ecology or whatever science your your discipline you're working with and advance that field, help folks understand the issue that you're working on because it may it may spur other questions that they have or help them with the work that they're doing. Scientific writing also in that peer review process also brings credibility to your work.""Why in the world do we use such a format? Why is it not like if I do a presentation at a scientific meeting, I may do some methods and results to discuss that, and then start over again. And do that multiple times even for one smaller type that might be a chapter in a thesis or dissertation. I'm not gonna roll all my results together and talk through all those individual results and then discuss all of them afterwards, it just doesn't flow very well. So why in the world do we do it that way?""What Stuart has impressed upon me is in your introduction, you have the first three hundred words is what's gonna grab your reader. And in that first three hundred words, you should speak to what the issue is that you're addressing, why it's important, why it matters, and then how you resolve it. So the first three hundred words, what's the issue? Why does it matter? And then how do you address it? And that's how he taught me to write it."

The controversial issue of males in women's sport has reared its head at the Paris Olympics. In this episode, the team discuss the case of two boxers who were disqualified after failing 'gender eligibility tests' by their international federation at last year's World Championships but, despite being biologically male, are competing in Paris. We discuss how this situation has arisen, including an explanation of the governance issues that led to their inclusion, and the biological factors that give rise to the Differences of Sex Development (DSDs) that are thought to be responsible for these two cases. We explain how significant male advantage is in sport, and why boxing, of all the sports, is one that should recognise male biology and its implications. Finally, we offer insight into the International Olympic Committee's (IOC) Principles of Fairness and Inclusion, contrasting this with other sports that regulate women's sport and exclude male advantage.Show notesHere's where you go to sign up for Patron, with a small monthly pledge, which then gives you access to our Discourse forum where other listeners share their thoughts and responses to these issuesThe IOC's Framework on Inclusion with the ten principles discussed in the show, including "Number 1: Inclusion", and "No Presumption of Advantage"The Scientific Paper that accompanied the IOC Framework aboveWe (Ross) co-authored a scientific rebuttal to that paper, addressing some of the issues with the science and human rightsHere is the IOC Guidance on language use in Paris, as raised by Gareth on the showThe International Boxing Association Technical and Competition Rules, which include, at 4.2.

In this episode Prof. Erin Fraser joins me for part two of our introduction to primary scientific literature. This time... did you know most of us don't read these "papers" from start to finish? in this episode we try to demystify the process and we admit... we have to look up words just like everyone else!
You want your scientific article to be published and reach the scientific community, but you move in a highly competitive world. To do this, you must write your article with the Trinity in mind: three types of people who will evaluate your article—Editor, Reviewer, and Reader.Each member of the Trinity has different desires, determinants, and fears. You cannot write your article without understanding all three, without considering their views and passions. If your article appeals to all of them, it will succeed. You will not have achieved your goals if you fail in only one.This is the podcast version of my blog's episode Who do you have to think about when writing a scientific paper?

In this episode, Morten interviews Kristina Vaarst Andersen, the senior author of our recent paper co-published in CoffeeMind. It is a paper covering the interpretation of the data we collected in a research project investigating the dynamics of business models of coffee roasteries. We started this project around eight years ago, and despite struggling with collecting enough data, we have finally gotten an excellent paper written up and published. Unfortunately, Morten did not set the microphones correctly, but hopefully, it is well enough polished in post-production for you to extract the meaning.Please find the paper here (Presse the 'Fulltext' link on the right side of the page):https://orbit.dtu.dk/en/publications/creativity-and-commerce-a-shifting-balance-for-specialty-foods-an
This is part 2 of a two part lesson on how to read a scientific paper. In part 1 Prof Joanna Coleman and I talked about the parts of a scientific paper and we compare our approaches to actually sitting down and trying to understand scientific publications. We also introduced the topic of "co-evolution". In this episode Prof. Coleman and I actually read a paper together and we talk about it as we go. What we liked, what was important, what did we both get from this paper. The paper we are going to read is a short, reasonably easy to read report on how bats and pitcher plants may have co-evolved. Grafe TU, Schöner CR, Kerth G, Junaidi A, Schöner MG. A novel resource-service mutualism between bats and pitcher plants. Biol Lett. 2011 Jun 23;7(3):436-9. doi: 10.1098/rsbl.2010.1141.If you are a university professor and would like a suggested assignment that goes along with this two part episode feel free to email the podcast and i'll explain the different assignments I have used as a follow up in different classes. EASTER EGG - this paper inspired the cover art for BioAudio. The wonderful image that I was given permission to use by Wren Bailee.
If you are a university professor - how often do you ask your class to read a paper... and how often do you actually explain how they should do it? As a student, how often has someone actually walked you through how to understand scientific publications.... my guess is not enough!Teaching from scientific publications is great, but they take practice to get onto the style of writing. As scientists, we read and write so many, sometimes we forget how steep that learning curve is. I was surprised when a student stopped me after class last year and said "but, how do I read the paper you gave us, what am I supposed to get from it? It's like a different language". The student was quite correct. Reading scientific literature is a skill we all need to learn and practice. So Professor Joanna Coleman and I sat down and created this two part episode on how to read a scientific paper. In part 1 we talk about what goes into the different sections of a scientific paper, and we compare how each of us would approach reading a paper. We also introduce the topic of co-evolution (which is what we are going to read about). In part 2 we actually read a paper together.

Listen to this interview of Jari Saramäki, author of How to Write a Scientific Paper: An Academic Self-Help Guide for PhD Students (2018) and professor of computational science at Aalto University, Finland. We talk about how hard soft skills are. Jari Saramäki : "Yes, I think that there is something to a kind of immersion approach to learning. Because you can learn a lot by observing, by imitating, by looking at things and asking questions. But this is something you need to decide to do. So, you can read a paper so that you just read and try to get the science out of it. Or, you can start reading it as if you wanted to write a similar paper, so that you look at its structure, the shape of its sentences, and so on. You try, basically, to absorb all this information that's in the writing. But you need to know that there is this method of reading. So, yes, as teachers, we should maybe be trying to point this out to students: 'Next time when you read a paper, forget about the science, and try instead to look at the sentences and the paragraphs. Write like a one-sentence summary of each paragraph, and then observe in your sentences how the whole paper has been structured.' So, yeah, we should definitely encourage our students to do more of this kind of immersive learning." Watch Daniel Shea edit your science here.

Journalists discuss Answers to the Big Questions and Hawking’s recent paper on black holes
In this week's episode of Conversation on Tap, Joel and Jose embrace Trump derangement syndrome. But before they drunkenly stumbled into that topic, they poured themselves several-- more than several-- pints of M.Special American Lager, a tasty brew out of Goleta, California. For their FRED Talks, Joel talked about Mt Waialeale as one of the wettest places on earth, though the top spot belongs to Mawsynram-- and talked about whether or not water is wet. Jose then talked about Pope Francis and the false accusation that he denied the existence of hell. At this point, the two rabble-rousers jumped into the topic of Trump. They covered everything from his constant lies to his love for Wikileaks to his blatant racism to his numerous ties to Russia. But they also took evangelical Christians to task for their blind support for Trump, as well as liberals who refused to support Hillary Clinton. As they wrapped up, Joel talked about an article in the Atlantic entitled The Scientific Paper is Obsolete. Jose ended by talking about Pope Francis' exhortation entitled Gaudete et Exsultate. Our next episode is on Fake News, and it will likely be a two-part episode, so stay tuned! Salut!
Jessica Forde, Yuvi Panda and Chris Holdgraf join Melanie and Mark to discuss Project Jupyter from it’s interactive notebook origin story to the various open source modular projects it’s grown into supporting data research and applications. We dive specifically into JupyterHub using Kubernetes to enable a multi-user server. We also talk about Binder, an interactive development environment that makes work easily reproducible. Jessica Forde Jessica Forde is a Project Jupyter Maintainer with a background in reinforcement learning and Bayesian statistics. At Project Jupyter, she works primarily on JupyterHub, Binder, and JuptyerLab to improve access to scientific computing and scientific research. Her previous open source projects include datamicroscopes, a DARPA-funded Bayesian nonparametrics library in Python, and density, a wireless device data tool at Columbia University. Jessica has also worked as a machine learning researcher and data scientist in a variety of applications including healthcare, energy, and human capital. Yuvi Panda Yuvi Panda is the Project Jupyter Technical Operations Architect in the UC Berkeley Data Sciences Division. He works on making it easy for people who don’t traditionally consider themselves “programmers” to do things with code. He builds tools (e.g., Quarry, PAWS, etc.) to sidestep the list of historical accidents that constitute the “command line tax” that people have to pay before doing productive things with computing. Chris Holdgraf Chris Holdgraf is a is a Project Jupyter Maintainer and Data Science Fellow at the Berkeley Institute for Data Science and a Community Architect at the Data Science Education Program at UC Berkeley. His background is in cognitive and computational neuroscience, where he used predictive models to understand the auditory system in the human brain. He’s interested in the boundary between technology, open-source software, and scientific workflows, as well as creating new pathways for this kind of work in science and the academy. He’s a core member of Project Jupyter, specifically working with JupyterHub and Binder, two open-source projects that make it easier for researchers and educators to do their work in the cloud. He works on these core tools, along with research and educational projects that use these tools at Berkeley and in the broader open science community.

Every day the newspapers have stories about ‘the latest scientific breakthrough’. But how do you tell if the latest paper is novel and ground breaking, or just a load of nonsense? Critically appraising scientific papers used to be a specialist skill, but it’s something anyone can do. What is good quality evidence? What is statistically significant? Just what is a p value? Stephen is a clinical lecturer in Geriatric Medicine at Glasgow University where his role combines research into aging and clinical practice, and has just finished writing up his PhD.
How do breakthroughs happen? Not how we think. Movies, books, and articles, constrained by time and word limits, often leave out the realities -- the messy work, filled with dead ends, abandoned questions, and accidental discoveries. That is what Stuart Firestein, Professor of Biological Sciences at Columbia University, wants to change. He believes that the roles ignorance and failure play in the discovery process are vastly underappreciated, so much so that he has written two books about them, Ignorance: How It Drives Science, and Failure: Why Science is So Successful. An advisor for the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation program for The Public Understanding of Science, Stuart shares insights from his own work as a successful researcher and scientist and from those of his peers, as well as scientific philosophers and historians. Insights from our interview: Knowledge and facts are important insofar as they help us ask better questions Conscious ignorance offers a useful playground for discovery The messy process of science and discovery is where the value lies The disconnect between scientific textbooks and courses and actual science The innovative course he teaches that helps students gain a scientific mindset What it is that makes a problem interesting How scientists, researchers, and creatives look for connections Why failure can be useful even if it never leads to an eventual success The fact that the more expert a person is the less certain they will be How systems limit innovation Why we need better tools for assessment and evaluation in schools Why we need feedback tools that are more diagnostic and less judgmental Why he worries most about people who dislike or are disinterested in science Why he sees his lab as a cauldron of curiosity How writing books requires a different way of looking at things How philosophy and history can impact science in an interactive way Selected Links to Topics Mentioned Stuart Firestein @FiresteinS Be Bad First by Erika Andersen Is the Scientific Paper a Fraud by Peter Medawar James Clerk Maxwell Principles of Neuroscience Eric Kandel Kenneth Rogoff D.H.

This month we discuss Scientific Paper Writing - a Survival Guide by Bodil Holst. Every budding researcher must eventually write a scientific paper, and yet how to do this is not something that is usually taught. Some supervisors provide excellent guidance and others – let's be diplomatic – don't. So Bodil host has produced a book that teaches the basics: how to arrange your information to help you get started, the order in which to complete the different sections, but also how to write your title and abstract to get your article noticed, read and cited. Hear an extract from the book, an interview with Bodil Host, and the views of the Chemistry World team in this month's podcast. You can read our review of Scientific Paper Writing here, and find all our book reviews here. We want to include you, the Chemistry World reader, in the conversation so join us next month when we’ll be discussing Sorting the beef from the bull – the science of food fraud forensics by Richard Evershed and Nicola Temple. Tweet your thoughts to @ChemistryWorld, or use the hashtag #BookClubCW and we’ll endeavour to include your opinions (or questions) on the podcast.
In the biomedical sciences we use the ICMJE criteria for authorship, and if these are followed there is actually no upper limit for the number of authors on a scientific paper as long as all authors fulfill the four authorship criteria.
This month, we discuss how to write quality scientific papers

Writing a scientific paper is different than writing, say a theory paper, and there are certain things your professor will be looking for. This podcast will tell you how to write a clear thesis and produce a proper scientific paper.
How you format your lab report is important if you want your work to be organized and clear to readers. This podcast details how to format your report properly.
Students often struggle writing their first, or even fifth, thesis. Free tools, like OpenOffice, are supposed to help writing these documents, but most of the times they cause more trouble. The problem here is not OpenOffice necessarily, but the lack of understanding how these apps work. LibreOffice, OpenOffice, NeoOffice (and most other document writing apps) have built-in features to support writing – instead of hinder. They are able to create an automatic table of contents and a bibliography index, they can reference material throughout the document, they can handle tables and other media. The problem though, without a basic understanding of the underlying mechanisms, documents are going to be a pain to write, with every chapter looking differently. Sometimes students even try to create their own table of contents by hand. This is all stuff these programs can do for you. We show you how. AppInfos: OpenOffice.org LibreOffice NeoOffice
Writing is the avenue through which you will become part of the broader national and international group of investigators. A convincing presentation of your thoughts and work are essential for success. (September 19, 2007)
