Second Annual Contest for Inflammatory Language!

Inflammatory Language is a series of primers on inflammation science. Care to contribute? The first place winner will receive a copy of ...

The Ghost Map: The Story of London's Most Terrifying Epidemic--and How It Changed Science, Cities, and the Modern World by Steven Johnson 

The 2013 winner was Dr. Monica Lalanda of Medicoacuadros. Her illustrations were included in Inflammatory Language: The Rain in Spain.... She received a signed copy of The Best Science Writing Online 2012.

This contest is a great opportunity for students, but anyone can contribute.

The overall goal is to accurately inform readers.
