1) Know what type of paper you're writing: a) a robot doing better at some well known task or b) a completely new and novel task / application / area.
For a) Show your delta over previous contributions, theoretically and/or practically
For b) Sell the relevance to robotics
2) Know your context: demonstrate a detailed and nuanced understanding of the application context in which your research is situated: the more specific and up-to-date, the better

As undergrad, I struggled immensely with this: reading and omg understanding papers.

Especially as non-native English speaker.

I did develop a system that helped me back then.

Bear with me it is pretty...mundane. 1/n

#reading #PhDLife #PDlife #undergradlife #papers #science
I printed each paper. And while reading I used a yellow, a green, and a pink highlighter.

When reading, I labeled every first mention of an abbreviation in green.

This helped me to find their meaning quickly again when deep into the text.

2/n
In pink, I labeled key questions and take-home messages.

If done correctly, you can look at pink sentences alone and recap the whole paper.

Peo-rip: first and last sentences of paragraphs often are pink sentences.

Pro-tip 2: write papers that have pink sentences.

1/ “It doesn't matter how many innovative podcast ideas u’ve had, its impact or how many you’ve inspired over the yrs

... all that matters is that you finish-- #papers.”

So, I’m OVERJOYED to see EM leading the way in other means of contribution to medicine. Actionable tips 👇🏾
2/ First, does it meet #scholarship criteria?

1) Original content creation

2) Advanced the field by building on theory, research or best practice

3) Was archived and disseminated

4) Community able to provide feedback in a transparent fashion that informs wider discussion.
3/ For promotions & tenure:

-- Consider obtaining letters of support, discussing the impact of specific pieces of scholarship, or simply your overall impact.

-- Include editor or peer-reviewer roles for digital scholarly content in your curriculum vitae (CV)

Hoy es #DíadelTrabajo. Queremos dar las gracias🙏a todas las personas que trabajan en el @IRBBarcelona, por poner tanto esfuerzo y pasión en la ciencia! Gracias a l@s que estas semanas habéis estado al pie del cañón en la lucha contra la #COVID19.

Gràcies a tots els #científics i els #tècnics que de forma voluntària han anat a cuidar cada dia els nostres🐀animals i garantir així la nostra #recerca en aquests temps de crisi i confinament. Sense vosaltres l'activitat de l'@IRBBarcelona se n'hagués pogut ressentir.
#WeAreIRB Image
Also thanks to all of you who have made an effort to adapt and continue with your #research, #papers, computational projects, PhD theses... #telework 💻 has more merit if you have the capacity to adapt to new challenges, if you work with true passion. Proud of you all!

#BREAKING NEWS!!!

@unhcr #UNHCR

According to research by the weekly magazine "@sternde", employees of the @UN refugee agency @Refugees were able to enable #Africans to move to the #West in exchange for #cash payments. Among other things,
the #employees issued false #papers with which the #Africans made it onto the coveted lists of the so-called "resettlement" program.
Several western states, including #Germany, offer refugees who are particularly worthy of #protection a secure future in their country. Above all,
people who are at risk of #disease and #persecution should benefit from this.However, since there are currently only 50,000 to 60,000 such resettlements per year worldwide, the chances of getting one of the places are negligible.

Team searches for prokaryotic small #proteins in #HMP dataset that are traditionally hard to detect 👉 Describe more than 4000 conserved protein families, most of which are novel (90% have no known domain, and ~1/2 are not represented in reference genomes):biorxiv.org/content/early/… ImageImageImageImage
Small #proteins identified by the team are 👉 potentially involved in crosstalk w/ the host or other #microbial cells, may be subject to horizontal #gene transfer...and may be related to defense against #phage or other bacteria (among other functions!): biorxiv.org/content/biorxi… Image
Also, important previous discoveries by Ami S Bhatt and @kyrpides (both authors of the small protein paper) 👉 are featured in my recent article: “My favorite 2018 #papers that impact the study of chronic inflammatory disease”☝️Check them out: microbeminded.com/2018/12/30/myf… ImageImage
