I recently took part in a national science writing contest and am amongst 6 finalists.
But to win the competition (and get a three month internship as the prize) and to advance my career, I need your help. The contest has a slightly strange rule from the final round onwards: since the writing format was blogging, the winner will be determined by public votes (logic: blogs target the masses). So, while a panel of scientists determined finalists , whoever gets the most votes from here wins (the panel actually jokingly recommends that contestants get to know TV show hosts for public announcements and asking all faculty,family, friends and blog reading strangers). :O
To vote is free - just click on the square voting widget just below and to the right of the article title. It'll say "you've voted" if your vote has come in.
Sounds unfair to most participants, but that's what it's going to be :(
