Collaborative Writing - Science topic

Dear colleagues,

I am Dr. Prasantha Bharathi Dhandapani, actively involved in academic research and collaborative writing, particularly in the areas of Mathematics and interdisciplinary applied sciences.

I am currently exploring academic partnerships with fellow researchers for the joint development of original research articles intended for SCI/SCIE and Scopus-indexed journals.

I would be pleased to connect with researchers who are interested in:

My aim is to build mutually enriching research relationships, grounded in academic integrity and shared goals.

If this aligns with your current or future research interests, I would be happy to discuss possible directions.

Warm regards, Dr. Prasantha Bharathi Dhandapani 📧 d.prasanthabharathi@gmail.com 📱 WhatsApp: +91 63811 38369 🔗 Google Scholar

I am wondering which term is more appropriate for use in titles when discussing a group within a larger category: 'among' or 'in'?

For example:

'Prevalence of sleep disorders among children with autism'

'Prevalence of sleep disorders in children with autism'

Could you explain the difference between using 'among' and 'in' in such contexts and advise which option is more suitable for title usage?

How can we demonstrate the efficacy of multimodal composing in enhancing writing skills, particularly in the context of academic writing, given the prevalent skepticism surrounding its effectiveness in improving academic writing skills? are there any methods or techniques of analyzing students' multimodal products to showcase improvement in terms of macro or micro-skills of writing? concerning coherence, content, organization, etc.

Scientific publications are an integral part of the life of any scientist. Taking into account the orientation of modern science towards international, mainly English-language journals, scientists from countries where

(1) English is not the main language and

(2) a different culture of academic writing has been formed, different from the international one,

faced the problem of adaptation.

Could you share some good open academic writing courses in English?

What are other methods of improving academic writing skills?

This discussion aims to initiate knowledge transfer about collaborative writing tips that could be of benefit to researchers. How do you handle collaborative writing? Some researchers share the subtopics/sections among all contributing authors (particularly for review articles). In other instances, the lead author writes the larger portion of the paper. Against this background, what are the best practices about collaborative writing? What methods work best for you either as the lead author or as a contributing author? What are the differences between the research paper and review papers in this regard?

As an inexperienced teacher in the field of online teaching, I have the fear of unconsciously ignoring one of the skills while focusing on not ignoring the other!

Therefore, I wish to make use of your experiences with distance learning/teaching in the field of integrating the four skills-listening, speaking, reading, and writing- in the language course.

Note: the context of teaching is Algeria, hence, some limitations exist concerning the availability of internet and computers.

Since the decline of audiolingualism, there was bias towards speech in language teaching for communicative ends. Though, the stress on speaking rather than writing produces fluent but inaccurate learners (Hughes, 1983).

Hello Everyone,

I've been writing review articles on the following topics:

1. Stroke and MMP-9 research

2. CRISPER cas-9 and MMP-9

3. Heterogeneity of Monocytes among stroke patient

3. COVID-19 Pathophysiology

4. Brain on a chip

Is anyone interested in collaborative writing and publication? Please let me know. We can share our ideas on extending the content of the paper and get it published mutually.

Professionals with an interest in stroke and neurology research are most welcome.

Thanks,

Rozan

Hello Everyone,

I've been writing a review article (almost done) on cancer research. Is anyone interested in collaborative writing and publication? Please let me know. We can share our ideas on extending the content of the paper and get it published mutually.

Professionals with an interest in cancer research are most welcome.

Thanks,

I am searching for tools to collaboratively write R code together (and run it in an online environment). Crucially, the functionality should be similar to Google docs, i.e. all users should be able to edit the same code simultaneously. Any ideas?

Thank you very much,

Christoph

I would like to pursue my Phd and examine

the role of diverse socio-emotional or environmental characteristics (e.g., efficacy, aptitude, anxiety, strategy, technology skills, and curriculum in students’ collaborative writing;

investigate collaboration trajectories, such as changes in written participation (e.g., amount of writing, revision) across different phases of collaboration;

observe students’ scaffolding and mediation in oral discussion may impact the amount of their written contribution;

examine diverse channels of student collaboration (e.g., verbal discussion, commenting, and chat;

investigate the context-specific factors (e.g., participant background, curriculum context, and teacher role.

Which framework can best fit in answering these above mentioned questions?

I hope that you might suggest a framework like Digman’s big five model which was used in preparing ACT Tessera test to measure socio emotional learning skills.

We are looking for contributions that - empirically - investigate the use of digital learning tools/aids for language education/promotion of language skills (reading, writing, speaking or listening) in kindergarten and school.

Many thanks for references!

I recently published the first professional article on male solosexuality, a sexual identity and set of associated sexual practices focusing on communal masturbation and veneration of the penis.

This was a difficult article for me to adequately convey all of the permutations of this new topic. There is just so much to say. I am now seeking a group of collaborators to write commentary that can serve as a "response" paper.

I am interested in experts from the fields of human sexuality, masculinities studies, postmodern identity constructions, and other diverse fields to contribute some commentary that can help frame this discussion from a multitude of perspectives.

Please let me know if you -- or someone you know -- might be interested in contributing to this project.

Is there any renewable or updated database or PFD file for easy handling the valid abbreviations of journal names

Hello,

Can you share a little bit more information about the purpose and motivation for writing this book? I would be willing to collaborate and write.

Sincerely,

Florence

I am conducting a study on collaborative writing using an experiment (pre- and post tests). How can I measure students' writing motivation? i mean if they are more motivated or not.

Hi all,

I am ready to collaborate in writing book chapters in extractive metallurgy, nanomaterials, synthesis of nanomaterials as well as research and writing scientific articles.

please contact me

I just wanted to collaborate with another lab who are already well experienced with the project I wanted to start in plants but they work in mammals. This collaboration is not to write an new project proposal but to work at the level of sharing skills, experiences and authorship on publications.

For this, I don't know how to start a first conversation through email and also to convince them to collaborate for plant project which is not their area of interest at all. Your suggestions on initiating conversation for new collaboration will be very much helpful and deeply appreciated.

Thanks

Dear Colleagues,

This discussion is regarding providing opinion and expertise in understanding and comparing the implementation of the popular word processors.

Let us know about the benefits, concerns, technical advises, online resources regarding multidimensional use of these word processors which helps in bringing research alive.

Your valuable comments and opinions along with your choices for specific word processor are welcome.

You collect and analyze data, finally you get to write your findings. Time pass and the text get outdated. You are way beyond that research, working with new and more interesting stuff. Nevertheless, you feel a moral obligation to make your findings public, as it used time and money of so many people.

You decide to update the manuscript with state-of-the-art analysis. You invite new collaborators and start to work. Your collaborators behave as reviewers and just point out weaknesses and criticize (a lot), without substantial help. You finally submit it and after a couple of rejections you got a minor review. You are busy (and more interested in your actual work) and feel the weight of carry it alone since your collaborators are sharper and fiercer than the actual reviewers…

You got sick of the manuscript and starts to wonder if you should get on with it or invest the time in your actual research…You get bored 5 seconds after opening the document to edition... You even start to evaluate if your results are that interesting anyway...

Brothers and sisters of science, who among you would share your experiences on this kind of situation?

I am searching for collaborators to write up scientific papers on GHG measurements. I have collected more than 500 hours of measurements in rice paddies, using ring-down spectrometry.

Population Simulation Problem: I need someone to collaborate in writing a population simulation program incorporating kinship rules of endogamy/exogamy, mating rules, territory and carrying capacity.

I am an evolutionary sociologist and author of a new multi-species population theory, which I can demonstrate in diagrams (also published in books). I want to have it expressed mathematically but need help for this.

Then I want help to model this theory, simulating populations, to show how different kinship and marriage rules, responsive to local environmental feedback, produce different fertility opportunities, beyond the predator/prey/density models, but I cannot write programs.

So, I need someone to add to an extant population simulation program or write a new one, so that I will be able to run variations myself. I would acknowledge the program writer as a contributor to the theory.

This could be a good new thesis basis for a program writer and life-sciences grad. Our work would need to be confidential prior to publication. Maybe more than one person could be involved. I welcome any advice as to what would be necessary.

let’s be grateful for the effort the reviewers put in making your paper a better version of itself. Take their comments positively!

What are your feelings towards reviewers?

I am searching for anyone with interest on nurses' experience during disaster response or perhaps already conducted any study on the topics for collaboration in writing up articles.

We have known for some time the link between words, writing and well-being, and practitioners have been deploying alternative approaches for years (e.g. counsellors, psychotherapists, artists, poets, NLP practitioners, hypnotists, etc).

Indeed, Bakhtin, Lacan, Zizek, all point to varying levels of self-authorship to write one's identities and ways of being - and that these have consequences on how we relate to and engage in the world (and of course, therefore, implications for well-being).

What sources, if any, summarise this empirical or practical work? What sources bring the different perspectives or occupational groups together?

I am currently working on a project. I want to pull the data on ECC from all countries around the world. If you are interested, please send me a message. I need co-authors who can write up a 1,200-1500 word piece on ECC from all countries of the world. Please contact me if interested

I am interested in research and experience about collaborative writing tools, research tools, tools that facilitate online teamwork, tools that enable students to do things like create a video together at a distance.  

If it's possible, can you tell me what the methodology and method are? Thanks.

I am planning to conduct a research on students writing motivation before, while and after taking collaborative writing tasks via wikis. I am planning to adapt a questionnaire to measure motivation before and after taking 5 tasks via wikis. the tasks will be one task for an hour each week. The tasks will be for 5 weeks.However, I am wondering how I could measure students writing motivation during taking these tasks.  

Hello,

I would like to compile a citation reference list covering human RNA-Seq needs for researchers. I am wondering if anyone has already compiled a "guide line" list for the sequencing depth needed for 80% or 90% coverage with RNA Seq for samples of various sources, say FFPE tissue as compared to fresh, or highly expressed sequences as compared to low mRNAs from human or mammals etc.?  I realize that it is a big ask but if anyone has some guidance we could work together and share information and the citations..thank you .Sincerely Lyndon

HEALTHCARE PUBLIC-PRIVATE PARTNERSHIPS AND INFRASTRUCTURAL SUPPLY CHAIN SUSTAINABILITY

1.      Purpose  The research question of this paper is to examine how infrastructural investments, coordinated with their underlying supply chains (SCs) and fostered by Public Private Partnerships (PPP), can enhance systemic sustainability.

2.      Design/methodology/approach  This research paper starts from literature gaps about sustainable supply chains. An empirical case of healthcare infrastructural supply chains is then examined and generalized according to an inductive approach.

3.      Findings  Provided that sustainable SCs naturally rely on sound and lasting infrastructures, PPP can promote integrated and long-lasting SCs. Financial and economic sustainability can precede social and environmental resilience. Public subsidies are necessary, but sustainability reduces their burden for taxpayers.

4.      Research limitations/implications   PPP healthcare supply chains represent a peculiar case, which may need adjustments to be generalized. Environmental concerns need further analysis.

5.      Practical implications  Increasing awareness of sustainability drivers can improve resilience and flexibility of public healthcare supply chains, to the benefit of patients and taxpayers.

6.      Social implications   Sustainable healthcare SCs provide better cares, outreaching more patients.

7.      Originality/value   This study simultaneously addresses the theoretical nature of infrastructural SC and considers their sustainability within a PPP multi-stakeholder context.

Can RG be used for generating new ideas and promoting joint research? Any ideas how to make collaboration more attractive should be of interest to most RG members.

Scenario: One is going to write a book. Instead of writing it down in a closed environment and afterwards and publishing, each chapter (or the whole book) is presented to a community for comments. For "fiction authors" this is common practice since many years in the form that they present their ideas for the next books and the fan community comments or even makes suggestions what they would expect next. In the scientific context, this practice gets more and more common. Do the benefits overweight the risks of being copied before the publication finally is proceeded? Are there opportunities to secure the intellectual property rights in such a process? Do I maybe worry about the wrong things?
