Public Abstract of Your Paper: help spread knowledge rather than ignorance.

Why do it?​

• To draw interest to your publication, both clicks and downloads as well as citations improve your metrics. 

• To increase likelihood of your work being picked up by other media channels.

• To clearly demonstrate the impact and value of your work to the public.

• To allow you to improve the impact statements on your next grant application.

• To improve your lab / personal website.

• Because it costs a tiny sliver relative to the the total cost of your project but can have a relatively substantial impact on your message and career.
