Highlight Submissions

1. Highlight Body
Title*
Title should be descriptive and broadly understandable (avoid simply re-using the title from your publication.) Capitalize the first letter of each significant word. For example: “Digging into the Roots of Phosphorus Availability”
Subtitle*
Subtitle provides further information that encourages people to read more. Lowercase all but the first letter and end with a period. For example: “Tree presence affects how soils respond to temperature change in a coastal forest.”
The Science (keep to 75-100 words)*
Describe your scientific results for a non-expert, non-scientist audience. Please do not copy/paste your abstract for this section or the others below. Use short sentences and short words. Avoid technical terms if possible; if necessary, define them. Provide the context needed to give readers a very basic understanding of what you did. Readability for the overall highlight should be no higher than a 12th-grade level.

The Impact (keep to 75-100 words)*
Describe the impact of your research to a non-expert, non-scientist audience. The impact of use-inspired science is typically a potential technological advance, while the impact of discovery research might be to open up new frontiers of science or resolve a long-standing question. Use short sentences and short words. Avoid technical terms if possible; if necessary, define them.
Summary*
Provide a paragraph or two with additional details of your work. The summary section should still be accessible to the non-specialist but may be more technical if necessary. As a point of style, the institution where the work was performed is not usually mentioned here. However, if a DOE Office of Science user facility is involved, you can mention the user facility.
