We all struggle with writing, especially in academic contexts. This particular method proved immensely beneficial in my journey of crafting my MPhil thesis, offering invaluable assistance. It provided the essential support needed to overcome the challenges inherent in academic writing.

Shitty First Draft Concept: The concept of the “shitty first draft,” a writing technique coined by Anne Lamott in her book “Bird by Bird” (1994). It emphasizes the importance of writing a rough first draft without worrying about quality.

Writing Process: The technique involves letting ideas flow freely onto paper, knowing it can be shaped later. This approach helps writers overcome the fear of starting and the pressure of creating a perfect first draft.

Benefits: By writing a “shitty first draft,” writers can get their thoughts out and familiarize themselves with the scope of their work. This makes subsequent editing steps easier and more effective.

A summary of the 10 essential principles for aging well covered in "Brain Rules for Aging Well" by John Medina:

Exercise - Regular physical activity is crucial for maintaining cognitive function, mood, and physical health as we age.

Sleep - Getting quality sleep is vital, as poor sleep is linked to accelerated cognitive decline and increased risk of dementia.

Stress - Learning to effectively manage stress through relaxation techniques, social connection, and cognitive strategies can slow age-related mental deterioration.

Nutrition - Eating a nutrient-dense diet rich in vegetables, fruits, whole grains, and healthy fats nourishes the brain and body.

Learning - Continuously challenging the brain with new skills and information helps maintain mental sharpness.

Purpose - Maintaining a sense of purpose and meaning in life is associated with better cognitive and emotional wellbeing.

Social Connection - Staying socially engaged and nurturing relationships are protective against cognitive decline.

Music - Actively engaging with music, whether playing an instrument or simply listening, boosts brain health.

Relaxation - Taking time to unwind and restore through practices like meditation helps counteract the damaging effects of stress.

Optimism - Cultivating a positive, hopeful mindset can enhance physical and mental resilience as we age.

Following these 10 principles can help you stay vital, happy, and sharp for years to come, according to brain expert John Medina.

Rosalind Franklin (1920-1958) was a British chemist and X-ray crystallographer whose work was crucial to the discovery of the double helix structure of DNA.

Here are some key facts about Rosalind Franklin:

She captured the famous "Photo 51" X-ray diffraction image of DNA in 1952, which revealed the double helix structure. However, her contribution was initially unrecognized.

She was an expert in X-ray crystallography and studied the molecular structures of DNA, viruses, coal and graphite.

Her work at King's College London, using X-ray diffraction techniques, provided important insights into the helical structure of DNA.

Her data and insights helped guide Francis Crick and James Watson in deducing the double helix model of DNA's 3D structure in 1953.

Franklin's contribution to the discovery was largely unacknowledged for many years due to the sexist attitudes of the time. Watson and Crick shared the 1962 Nobel Prize with Maurice Wilkins.

She made pioneering use of X-ray diffraction studies of viruses, laying the foundations for structural virology.

She died of ovarian cancer in 1958 at the age of 37, before she could be formally recognized for her seminal work on DNA structure.

Rosalind Franklin's meticulous X-ray work and skills in crystallography provided indispensable data that led to one of the greatest discoveries of the 20th century - the double helix structure of DNA.

Picking the Perfect Color Palette for Science Figures

Creating effective scientific figures requires more than just plotting the data. Choosing the right color scheme is critical for highlighting key aspects of your data and making sure your figures are readable and interpretable. This is where the ColorBrewer website comes in handy.

ColorBrewer provides guidance on issues like color vision deficiencies, using saturation vs lightness, and more. There is information on color theory and design principles to help you understand why some schemes work better.

This website assists me in creating scientific figures for my clients. Let me know if you find it as useful as I have for figure creation!
