Editing my poster for a conference, and outlining ideas for my NSF research proposal. Fun day!!

What's your presentation title? I'm working on my first publication today. Got any tips?

For anonymity's sake I won't say the exact title, but it's about phrase processing. I'm at the stage of actually designing the poster so it's less about writing and more about arranging information in a way that makes sense visually. I'm terrible with design so it's a nightmare :(

In general though, my advice for writing is to assume nothing of your audience. You've been thinking about these ideas for months or years and you have your own way of talking about it that other people likely won't understand. Make sure labmates and friends are able to understand the logic and follow what's happening!

We'll have to see it when you're done!

ooh, Hubski would actually be a great place to get feedback on my NSF proposal because it'll ultimately be reviewed by people outside my field anyway...

I concur. By appearances, there are a good number of folks here familiar with the academic process. #peerreview?
