Research has been done, drafts written and final articles submitted… it’s time for the Emerging Writer series. ScienceCalling.com opened its virtual doors to budding science writers to give them a platform to showcase their skills. Just over a month later, nine articles are ready for your enjoyment.

A new article will be published each weekday morning over the next two weeks starting tomorrow. The hashtag for the series is #EmergingWriter.

I’m delighted to announce that nine writers from across the globe are taking part. These are:

Week 1:

• Emily Berry: Cats Lovers Anonymous (Tues 26th)
• David Pugh: Countering Clandestine Laboratories (Wed 27th)
• Naomi Lavelle: Science through the eyes of a child (Thurs 28th)
