JBC is great! @AllisonFrick

I'll join in at 1:30 PM. #JBCReviews

Hi, I'm Karin Musier-Forsyth and I'm a JBC Associate Editor and Professor of Chemistry and Biochemistry at Ohio State. Happy to join! @JBiolChem #JBCReviews

A3 In my graduate scientific writing course, one assignment I gave students was to read a JBC Review on a topic they were interested in learning about. They then critiqued the review and clarity in explaining the topic to non-experts was key to a good review. #JBCReviews

A4 In my scientific writing class, I use JBC reviews as examples because our figure artist, Luciana Giono, works with the AEs and authors to enhance the figures—the authors and readers are super happy with the outcome! @JBiolChem #JBCReviews

A4, A great figure/scheme can be a super useful teaching tool and also useful for conference presentations. JBC Reviews are a good resource for this. @JBiolChem #JBCReviews

A5, When I introduce or summarize a topic in my graduate Macromolecules class, I am always looking for a recent review with clear figures so that I can teach the students at a glance about the latest overarching model in the field @JBiolChem #JBCReviews

A6, I am sure this happens frequently. When my students work on their candidacy docs, they often use reviews to get up to speed on a topic and then get excited about applying new ideas, especially new methods/tools @JBiolChem #JBCReviews

A7, here's what my students say: More info on HOW to read a scientific paper as an undergrad, more connection with real life applications , and more visuals, animations @JBCReviews

A7, visual protocols; in my Gen Chem classes--demos to illustrate concepts are always a hit and really work--they stick with the students. @JBCReviews #JBiolChem

A9, Researchers in industry are often moved from one project to the next without much notice and a good review, I imagine, can really help them get up to speed on a new area quickly. #JBCReviews

I find JBC Reviews/resources useful for teaching a grad class on scientific writing. Check out these resources on presenting data, writing, ethics, peer review and more! jbcresources.asbmb.org @JBiolChem #JBCReviews
