SteemSTEM Distilled #58

Welcome to the 58th issue of SteemSTEM Distilled, a curation effort by the members of the @steemstem team.

SteemSTEM aims to make Steem a better place for STEM, a task which we believe crucial for the long-term development of the blockchain. Our goals consist in invigorating and inspiring the minds of a community of STEM aficionados on Steem, targeting on the long-term the upgrade of SteemSTEM as a real platform for science communication. In the meantime, this goes through the support of quality, interesting and cutting-edge STEM content. For more details, a recent update on the SteemSTEM project is available here. If you want to discuss with us, please do not hesitate to join the steemSTEM discord server.
In order to support the best STEM content on Steem, our team scours the blockchain and read more than a couple of thousands of STEM-related posts per week. We hence support about 200 of these posts, and present in this distilled our top 8 handpicked choices for the last Thursday-Sunday period. ##
Thursday
___
### Extrusion process; making “impacts” that shape our world
Thursday brought us an amazing post by @adetola on the process of extrusion. Read it to learn more on what extrusion involves and how widely it is used.
### Engineering the Infrastructure - City Planning Basic Education
@alexdory has given us another excellent post and this time he discusses the basics of city planning and how some changes could benefit our lives.

Friday


### The War Against HIV: How Close Are We To Victory ?
Moving on to a different field, @kingabesh discusses the HIV plague and advances in its treatment. Are we close to finding a cure? Are we ever going to eliminate the virus? Read his post for more.
### Work in progress (paper three of the PhD)
A post that is actually part of his job is here by @nonzerosum. Do you know what Psychology of Vaccination involves? Read on to learn more about what his PhD is about.

Saturday


### Frequently Asked Questions regarding SteemSTEM
Something not so “sciency” but of great value to the community is here, the ultimate FAQ SteemSTEM guide by @katerinaramm! This post will answer all your questions if you are a newcomer, so make sure you study it carefully! And don’t forget, our discord server is always open for more information!
### Junk science makes my blood boil and feeds mosquitoes
An interesting piece by @o1o1o1o talks about the fraud behind sonic mosquito repellents and other aids in the war against those little blood sucking insects.

Sunday


### Do Parents Stereotype Their Children’s Gender?
We missed @alexander.alexis and his extraordinary Sex Differences posts. This episode is about parents and how their behavior stereotypes the gender of their children. For more details you know which link to follow! ;)
### The colour of vehicle and hyperthermia death in Kids
And our week closes with a clever post by @steep2308 on heatstrokes and how the color of a car could be even fatal to a passenger left in the vehicle for a long time.

A few words about the nomination process


For some time, the editorial team behind this distilled series is made of a one-woman-team, @ruth-girl, and she chooses her favorite posts (potentially discussing with other curators and/or the management). Posts written by the SteemSTEM team are excluded from the nomination process.

Please do not be discouraged if you did not make it on this issue. We are picking up in total 14 posts a week out of more than 200. The chances are thus low ;) In the meantime, you may wish to check these guidelines for extra tips on how your writing could be more effective.
