SteemSTEM Distilled #61

Welcome to the 61^st issue of SteemSTEM Distilled, a bi-weekly 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.

### My Post-graduate Work: The Design and Construction of Heart Attack Detection and Monitoring Device

Monday brought us a post discussing @oluwabori’s post-graduate work on a life-saving device that aims to detect heart attacks. Your health is valuable and so is this piece you shouldn’t miss!

### We are what our grandmother has eaten - Siamo ciò che nostra nonna ha mangiato An interesting bilingual post (Parli italiano?) by @spaghettiscience on inheritance and how the WWII famine may have left its mark on our genes. Does this sound too general? Read the post for more fascinating details!

Tuesday

### We Need to Understand Why Bees Are Dying Coming up next, an extended and well-written post by @agmoore teaches us more about bees, this valuable link in the food chain. Are they threatened? Why? How? The answers are all in his post!

### Perceived, Actual and Literary Voices – Part 1 How many voices are there in our body? Why our ears perceive our voice so differently from all the others? Wanna get an idea? @deathbatter is preparing a whole series about it and the first part is already out! Don’t miss it!

Wednesday

### THE BLACK CANARY SCREAMS: Does It Really Exists, Even It Does Where Can We Find It In Real Life? We’ll stick with “sound” a little more and move on to a beautiful post by @rareghost. Our topic is ultradounds, which have a wide range of uses in real life. But looking deeper into the Black Canary DC character we may discover another, not so common use: ultrasounds as a weapon. If you want to learn more, you know which link to follow!

### I Think Sick, Thus I Am Sick How many of you believe that our feelings can make our body sick? And how many believe that our emotions have nothing to do with our physical health? Well, @lesshorrible has written a fantastic post discussing the connection between sickness of the soul and the effects on the body and the other way round. This is a piece you should not miss out on!

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.

During the last two weeks, steemstem supported with more than a (possibly split) full vote the following authors:

@abigail-dantes, @anaestrada12, @carloserp-2000, @chloroform, @dber, @deathbatter, @effofex, @egotheist, @eurogee, @fredrikaa, @gentleshaid, @greenrun, @herbayomi, @irelandscape, @laylahsophia, @lemouth, @lesshorrible, @mobbs, @mrbreeziewrites, @muphy, @procrastilearner, @ruth-girl, @samminator, @sco, @teekingtv

We are expecting them to strongly engage the community in return :)

All curation rewards earned will be used to fund @steemstem project functioning and activities.

See you all next Tuesday!
