Technical Writing Popularization
Approximately 800 word popularization of a recent research article on interactions between ADHD, prenatal stress, and cerebral cortical thinning.
This is a popularization of a scientific study created for a technical writing course I am in. The assignment called for students to create an enticing summary for a nonexpert based on the conventions of a news outlet that might be interested in the content.
​
I chose a recent article exploring interactions between prenatal stress, ADHD, and cerebral cortical thinning in adolescents. After thoroughly reading the article and researching related topics, I created a comprehensive summary of the information and implications of the study and its findings (in a format suitable for Science Daily).
