Some scientific papers are wonderfully elegant presentations of research. What makes a manuscript a #joytoread? RT & weigh in w hashtag!- @emilytmurray Aesthetics may be in eye of beholder, but I will post my thoughts under #joytoread. Hope others will weigh in too!
Interesting and thought provoking data make a paper a #joytoread . I read fiction for cute turns of phrase. #thisaintthearts- Never neglecting the flow of language, not weighing a sentence down w too much info make a paper a #joytoread.
@biochembelle Nothing grates on me more than use of complexity to pretend incremental finding is revolutionary. #joytoread- #joytoread Clear, even nearly conversational language. You almost forget it's science bc it's become a story.
+1 RT @biochembelle: #joytoread Clear, even nearly conversational language. You almost forget it's science bc it's become a story.
#joytoread An abstract that neatly summarises with a paper that uses easy to understand language.- #joytoread Summarizing large/complex datasets clearly w/o oversimplifying or over-detailing
- #joytoread A clear explanation of what the statistics mean in relation to the study without over simplification.
- It's a #joytoread papers that integrate previously published work as part of story instead of a list of facts.
- THIS! RT @biochembelle: It's a #joytoread papers that integrate previously published work as part of story instead of a list of facts.
- but...those are *incremental* advances then and clearly shitty science. #joytoread @biochembelle
- Agreed RT @biochembelle: It's a #joytoread papers that integrate previously published work as part of story instead of a list of facts.
Helps us too RT @biochembelle It’s a #joytoread papers that integrate previously published work as part of story instead of a list of facts.- @edyong209 Would love to hear what makes a paper a #joytoread for ppl outside the lab. Important for communication w ppl outside our fields.
- @biochembelle I'd REALLY love to know how studies started & preceding work. In intro, often hard to tell which cites are from same group!
- @biochembelle Also, a Q I always ask: "Did any bits surprise you?" Anything that makes it a human activity vs. just dry academic record
- #joytoread Diagrams and figures with meaningful captions.
- #joytoread using null data to build to 'suspense' (for lack of better word) and resolving w additional data
- Gag. Me. RT @biochembelle: #joytoread using null data to build to 'suspense' (for lack of better word) and resolving w additional data
Those just piss me off RT @drugmonkeyblog Gag. Me. RT @biochembelle #joytoread using null data to build 'suspense' and resolving w add data- Complete Methods sections make papers a #joytoread
This. Hate digging through 20 papers to get the real story RT @drugmonkeyblog: Complete Methods sections make papers a #joytoread
Joy to read a scientific paper
Make scientific articles better.
