«It was very useful to revise other people's abstracts because it made me realize how important it is to have a
good analogy when you need to explain
fairly complicated research in plain language,» said Cath Gilchrist, a 32 - year - old biology / medical research postdoctoral fellow from Australia.
By the way, there is sort of an
analogy here to the stock market: It is often noted by the sort of people who write mutual fund reports that if you just missed a few short periods of time in the market over the last few decades (e.g., say, the N
best weeks where N is a
fairly small number), you would have missed out on nearly all of the stock market gains.
