Corrections

Boss gave back my manuscript draft today. Although I could see big circles, question marks, cross outs and comments here and there, I did not see any paragraph or sentence to 'rewrite'. Phew. If compared to my previous experience, I can tell that there are some improvements to my scientific writing. However, how I argued and build my case still have much room for improvements. Same goes for the way I express my thoughts, what exactly that I'm referring to (specifically), the selection of words to use etc. I just need to practice more. Write more, read more and I'll become better.

Practice makes perfect. So does Dharma practice - I'm reminding myself actually.

Ya, and have to practice with the right method. Sometimes I feel doing science is similar to practicing dharma. You have to observe, choose the right and most suitable method, perform experiment, record down outcomes, and improve from there.
