So much Q&A, so little time

Within the last few weeks, you guys have been asking a lotttt of questions to our hosts. Lucky for you, they’ve decided to answer some! Here’s a Q&A roundup! 

@jtotheizzoe​ from It’s Okay to be Smart answers questions like What’s your favorite type of biology?, What has been your favorite video to make?, and Can dogs tell time?

Dianna from Physics Girl answers What is super symmetry?, What can I do with a physics degree? and What is the velocity of a flying rooster in space?

For her 100th video (!) Vanessa from @braincraft​ answers Does the brain have anything to regulate its function?, What’s the effect of chocolate on the brain?, and What’s your favorite Pokemon?

And let’s not forget @theartassignment​‘s Artline videos, where Sarah and John answer questions about art in pop culture, careers in art, and the psychology around art!

Saw your q: It's known that the bacteria are immobilized in the permafrost, and so they can date the soil around them to put a lower bound on the bacteria's age. If you wanna read to orig paper, search PNAS for "Ancient bacteria show evidence of DNA repair" Good question!

Thank you!

Legitimate point! I didn't mean to discourage writers at all, but to encourage further formal education along with the informal!

After all, my science writing jobs have all arisen from people saying "hey, I liked your post on platypodes/venereal diseases/death by smog", and not "you had a great educational background, what say you come write for us?"

For as much as I've grown from peer criticism and professional editing, I still find great value in formal writing classes. Call it the classicist in me. There are so many other paths to science and writing success, though, so don't take my word for it - pursue your passions with vigor, a desire to learn, and an ear towards constructive feedback, and you'll go far!
