Let me say it, most of the time current US govt. Give reflection of IK's Govt. In Pak. No experience, living luxuries at govt. Expense, blaming old govt, putting logics aside while talking. @AbsarAlamHaider @HamidMirPAK @GFarooqi #pakpeacediplomacy

Cash only? No POS? No online payment? Many Bakeries in Faisalabad like @NaginaSweet openly refusing POS & online payments. Chairman FBR @Rashidlangrial @FBRSpokesperson @PunjabRevenue are only focused to opress the soft targets; salaried class. @GovtofPunjabPK @commissionerfsd

What if the visa revoked students/researchers patent some world-class innovations in future and barr US from using the products? #RumeysaOzturk #grok @DOGE @elonmusk @AJEnglish @Reuters

@ChenghaoW @OUDGES @ousom @OUAGS Amazing! Congratulations 👏

Our high-res sampling campaign reveals extensive N2O emissions from an urbanized estuary, but the relationship between N2O-N and NO3-N is nonlinear, suggesting that IPCC's estuarine N2O emission factor is overestimated. @OUDGES @ousom @OUAGS

This is how I advise my #PhD students to write research manuscripts (in case someone finds it helpful). General points: 1. Research questions addressed by your manuscript are key and should guide you. 2. Don’t view your manuscript as an article. See it as a STORY. 3. Pick the writing style that is easily understood by a broader community. Make reading easy. 4. Most of data should get into the paper. If some doesn’t support the hypothesis, it still must be in the Suppl. Information. It must show the reproducibility limits. 5. Make the paper shorter, not longer. Cut out things that may sound like ‘bluff’ or ‘decoration’ of the story. Use well-defined terminology, don’t invent it unless clearly necessary. 6. Focus on reporting & explaining the numbers. Minimize discussions of qualitative outcomes and your imagination. ▫️ Specific steps: 1️⃣ First, formulate and polish the key questions that your study addresses. It may take hours or even days (even though you've been doing research in this area for years). A single study should address no more than 1-3 key questions. It’s your perfect start for writing. 2️⃣ Write down the structure of your STORY first: Sections and Subsections that will answer those questions. Into each subsection, put 1-2 sentences that formulate the message(s) from this subsection. It will hugely help you navigate the manuscript later and save a lot of time. 3️⃣ Write approximate messages in the conclusion section. Usually, no more than 1-4 sentences. ▫️ At this point, SHARE your [structure+questions+messages] document with your advisor for feedback. Toss it back and forth until you both converge. You can also include major collaborators if needed. ▫️ 4️⃣ Write the introduction part. Put down the paragraphs that introduce a reader into the key question(s) of the manuscript and the background of your story. 5️⃣ Write the main text for each section, smoothly and firmly. Each paragraph should add a separate value and end with a message-like sentence. Follow the “First… Second… Third…” structure for paragraphs when possible, it gives rigor and readability to your story. 6️⃣ Write the conclusions. Add a broader perspective that is justified and not generic. 7️⃣ Write the abstract. It must have simple terminology and clearly explain what readers can find inside the paper. It also should contain the key conclusions. 8️⃣ Write up 4-5 different titles and spend >30 mins with your team discussing which title sounds best. Finally, iterate on the resulting draft within your team. The number of drafts can easily exceed 20. ▫️ ❗In addition, I always emphasize that a high quality of your research paper: - sharpen your writing and analytical skills. - shapes your reputation. - shows who you are as a researcher and communicator. ▫️ p.s. Everyone has a different style of advising and writing. You can adopt only some specific steps if you find them helpful. p.p.s. Another way that we sometimes use is by starting with figures ('story in figures' style). #AcademicTwitter #AcademicChatter

@PinelaSara @wetsus @WetsusScience Many Congratulations @PinelaSara 👏

Last Thursday I had my last presentation of my #PhD @wetsus @WetsusScience. During 4 years I have studied how effective prevention of #fouling can be achieved in RO membranes! Thank you to all that attend the presentation! #BODAC #BODACtechnology #reverseosmosis #biofouling

Amazing people in science.

Amazing opportunity!

@NirupamAich I have been using @asana & @NotionHQ in my professional career. These are quite user-friendly as well.

What are good project management softwares to keep track of all the projects in the lab? How do you keep managing stuff?

@MZohaibSar Many congratulations. 👍

"Finally! I've made it! Passed my PhD defense like a champ! Big thanks to coffee for keeping me awake and pizza for being my late-night study buddy. Lots of love to my family who still isn't sure what I was studying! #PhD #ImADoctorNow

@MZohaibSar Good luck! 👍

Only one day left until my PhD defense! At this point, my anxiety is so high, it could probably write a better thesis. Question: Is it too late to add 'panic-induced genius' to my skills section? 🎓😂 #PhDLife #Countdown #KeepCalmAndDefendOn
