Content	Although we are still in the early stages of negotiation, it looks as though we may be able to use Site One in Eram to house abstracts for various research papers. Ideally, in the long term, we want to house the papers themselves as well, but publishing concerns will mean that's still a fair ways off. In the meantime, however, perhaps we can get started by publishing abstracts for our fellow capsuleers. As a way to prepare, I'd like to request research paper abstracts for the following projects, to be handed to me sometime over the next four weeks. Abstracts should be sent to me personally. I will compiled them on our networks at a later date. If you need assistance with their drafting, or have any questions, don't hesistate to contact me.

Note: If you are in a project with multiple leads / contributors, make sure to include them all. Let's try and get these right the first time around, as editing will be impossible after a certain point. --- Paper: Name of Paper Lead Researcher: Name/s of lead researchers. Contributors: Name/s of contributors. Summary: For the summary, you are effectively writing an abstract. An abstract is a self-contained, short, and powerful statement that describes a larger body of work. For experimental research, your abstract should include the scope, purpose, results (predicted, if not observed) and conclusion of your work. For non-experimental and theoretical papers, please include the thesis, background and conclusion of your work. These abstracts serve as brief overviews, and must be relatively short in length. We will be operating under various hard limitations when publishing this information, so there are no exceptions to this rule. As a guide, this entire template I’ve written out here is about 50% of the maximum size. So if your abstract is three times as large as this, it’s too big. I’m happy to work with people and review abstracts, so don’t be too concerned about size, just be aware that it’s a factor we can’t work around. Rikaato,

Content	A bit of clarification, if you please. Are paper names supposed to be the exact same as the project name and is the expectation to only have one paper for each project? I have structured my projects in such a way that it allows for more papers to be released on each, as having just one paper seems a bit limited when the topics are so wide. Regards Myyona

Content	Perhaps an overarching abstract that details the goals of your project as a whole, with each separate sub-project having its own paper and abstract? The overarching paper can be merely an abstract + table of contents/index in that case, if that works for Dr. Tukoss?
