I'm a bit stuck! I have to write 300 -400 words about my research for a publication that my sup edits. It is supposed to introduce myself and my research but I am struggling to hit the right tone between formality and informality since I am a student writing about myself and what I am doing, and also I don't want to give too many specific examples away. I have spend far too many days on this...

ANy advice would be VERY appreciated...

hey chris, congrats to the publication!

why don't you check out the "about the authors" section of an edited book or journal special issue for inspiration?

Thanks!
