Scientific Writing

Our role as biologists in building knowledge about the natural world relies on the ability to convey our results in a concise and meaningful way.  Upon completion of a particular line of investigation, we publish our findings in peer-reviewed journals to receive feedback from colleagues with similar expertise (peer review) and add to the body of knowledge about a topic.
