Hello,
Perhaps I should clarify the scope and target of this little blog. I'm a biologist who is moving into science writing, and having just started out in that sphere, I decided to start writing this to stretch my legs, try to get a feel for how to write about science, and learn about some broader scientific areas than my current expertise is. I'm writing about things I take the time to research a bit, that (unlike, say, molecular biology or microbiology) I don't know much about from an academic standpoint. It's maybe more of a journal of things I try to learn more about, so those looking for academic-level expertise will almost certainly be disappointed, and those looking for intense journalistic skill, five or six posts in, will probably also find themselves disappointed. My hope is to present more of a "hey, this is the cool thing I'm thinking about right now" perspective, and any constructive criticism of the specific thing I'm talking about is welcome, since I'm at the learning stage as well. (I.e., if you invented the silicon solar panel, and I completely misunderstood how it works, please let me know how).
If you're looking for hard, accredited journalism or academic understanding of all the things I'm writing about, you'll probably do better elsewhere.
