Paragraph structure is so important. Your writing has to be readable. See below for some great tips.

Even experienced scientific authors get this one wrong: Writing concise paragraphs. Here's a tutorial: https://nitter.cf/t.co/dzGqCK0COy #ChemTwitter #AcademicChatter

Important advice.
Hugh Kearns (@ithinkwellHugh) profile pictureHugh Kearns@ithinkwellHugh28 Jan 2020
When you start a #PhD you are learning how to do research. You don't know how to do it so ask questions. Lots of questions. If you already knew how to do a PhD there wouldn't be any point in doing it. You are doing it to learn.

Fancy following in their footsteps? Doctoral places available in Oxford for October 2020 in the synthesis of new battery materials (and other areas of inorganic synthesis!) as part of our OxICFM CDT oxicfm.ox.ac.uk/students/app… @OxfordChemistry @OxChemGradStudy

Such brilliant news: John Goodenough and his group pioneered the development of lithium cathode materials in Oxford; without this work, the rechargeable lithium battery (and arguably the modern connected world) would not exist. Congratulations to all three winners.
