“Deciding the line between non-life and life is not interesting. What’s important is the process.” Great talk by Jack Szostak at #SciWri25

Next #SciWri25 session is all about those data centers. Will learn if they are good, bad, ugly or all 3.
I would love it if public discourse on data centers could be just a skosh more sophisticated than "data centers good vs. data centers bad."

Thank you to David Awschalom for calling on the #SciWri25 community to help prepare the public for the quantum future.

Pro tip for #sciwri #sciencewriters meeting: tie a knot in your lanyard so your name tag is near your face & won’t flip around & nobody has to do the awkward navel gaze to read it

want to be on TikTok to communicate science but "not good at TikTok"? Collaborate with someone who *is* good at it. We don't have to be good at everything, says Rudy Molinek. #sciwri25 🧪
