Election post
Hey everyone, I am Katie, and I am a third year Natural Sciences student. As the biology editor for Science Magazine and copy editor for Kinesis science magazine this year, I have gained experience writing new articles and helping others by leaving constructive comments and suggestions in a way that does not remove the personality of the article or the individual writing style. Clarity and accuracy are highly important when communicating complex science to all audiences and are the main things I focus on when editing articles.
I really enjoy writing my own pieces, and also find it very interesting editing other people’s work and experiencing different writing styles. I understand how difficult and unfamiliar it can feel to begin writing as a science student. Because of this, I think it is important to encourage new writers, for example, by suggesting directions to take with their articles if they are finding the proposal difficult.
I would love to have the chance to be the Biology Editor for the Science Magazine next year and continue the amazing standard of articles we publish.
