Book excerpt: The Harvard Writing Project's disciplinary writing guides aim to introduce students to some of the basic practices and conventions of writing and conducting research in the various academic disciplines. In many ways, writing in the sciences is no different from writing in other fields. However, writing in the sciences follows certain conventions, styles, and formats. This guide details the major forms of writing you are likely to encounter in the sciences, including short answers and essays typical of science examinations, the laboratory notebook, research papers, research proposals, reviews, and writing for the general public.
