SteemSTEM Distilled #16

Welcome to the 16th issue of SteemSTEM Distilled, a curation effort by the members of the @steemstem team.

SteemSTEM is a community driven project which seeks to promote well-written and informative Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics posts on Steemit. The project involves curating STEM-related posts through upvoting, resteeming, offering constructive feedback, supporting scientific contests, and other related activities.

For more details click here and here for information of what it means to be part of steemSTEM.

Our team scours the platform for original and quality content.After working through thousands (literally!) of STEM-related posts and upvoting more than 200 that we deemed to be worthy, we proudly present you our top 7 handpicked choices: ##
Monday - What Doеs Thе Polygraph Mеasurе? Part I: A Briеf History And Introduction To Thе Mеthod


No need to even try to lie, @dysfunctional explains all the mysteries behind the polygraph. This article focuses on the history of the device, as well as on the method behind it.


Tuesday - From Nano-drawings with DNA to Nano-Robots



DNA can be used as legos and be the building blocks of crystals or even more fancy objects with crazy forms. A very nice article by @ertwro, who also compare with nanostuff.




Wednesday - Composite particles: let’s play Lego! (Particle Physics Series – Episode 2)


Particle physics strikes back on Steemit! @muphy tells us everything about how to glue quarks together to form larger composite objects like mesons or hadrons.



Thursday - Egyptology: The Temple of Deir El-Hagar



@laylahsophia tells us about a wonderful temple that elements (i.e. sandstorms) have tried to hide from us. The gods od Egypth are back, together with wonderful pictures of this secret treasure of ancient Egypt.




Friday - Finding, Counting, and Ordering Genes Using Incredibly Sophisticated Biomolecular Megatechnology


Everything about genes, from how to find them to how to track the mutant ones. @alexander.alexis tells us everything, including information about how to count genes and epistasis.



Saturday - Simple Question #11 - Why do we have Universe and not Anti-Universe? Where is all the Antimatter?



The mysteries of antimatter are decrypted by this article of @nitesh9. Embark to learn about antimatter and how it is possible that we cannot find it today in our universe.




Sunday - Your Body, Yourself : Part 1




Do we have a body? Are we our body? Body and soul? @zest tells us more about our body and how it is actually perceived.


A few words about the nomination process


For the sake of transparency we feel we need to clarify how our nomination process works; each issue is compiled by certain members of the SteemSTEM community. This week’s editorial team was comprised of @lemouth.

The editorial team chooses their favorite posts for the week and each issue is the result of their joined effort. In order to keep the process fair, posts written by the editorial team are excluded from the nomination process.

Don’t be discouraged if you didn’t make it on this issue. The competition is harsh and there is always a next time :) In the meantime, you may wish to check these guidelines for extra tips on how your writing can be more effective.


Authors That Received a Curie Upvote by the SteemSTEM Team


In the same spirit of being transparent about our actions that are now supported by @curie, we will release every week a list of authors who have caught the attention of the @steemstem curation team.

If you want to discuss this with us, please do not hesitate to join the steemSTEM channel on the Steemit chat or to follow our curation trail on Streemian. If you are not on Streemian, we have a plan B through a homemade voting bot. You can contact us on the chat in order to be added to its trail.

From December 24 to December 31, we rewarded 107 different authors who have written a total of 186 different articles. The authors who received both a @steemstem and a @curie vote that week are:
