Lost in Citations

Often researchers and academics get ‘lost in citations’ –– we forget there’s a real person/voice behind the writing. In each episode, we focus on a publication that has caught the host’s eye. We’ll learn more about the writer and gain insights on researching and writing better academic papers. Rotating podcasts by Chris Haswell, Jonathan Shachter and contributing interviewers. lostincitations@gmail.com
