Foundational Skills in Life Sciences
Students and scholars in life sciences need to use many skills to survive and excel during scientific training, which involves listening, reading, writing, and speaking.
But I have seen many of them struggle in understanding and learning those skills.
I am a professor in the U.S., a tenured faculty member with MD, PhD degrees.
I will guide you through the skills, so that you will learn and improve successfully in your professional life.

51. Have you read an abstract that was not written well?
My students selected a paper to read in a journal club. The abstract (and the rest of the paper) was not written well. The abstract gave us two precious lessons.
- Lesson 1: Good structural organization will help the readers understand the content.
- Lesson 2: Abstracts of peer-reviewed papers can be disorganized.
I hope you learn them in this episode, too!
