Welcome to the fifteenth 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.
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 - Christmas Disease — Yes, it's real, 100% scientifically proven!
Tuesday - Amazing Animals #11 The Reindeer
Wednesday - How Will The Earth Look Like In The Next One Million years? (Projection into the year 1002017AD)
Thursday - How a Fungus Will Help to Clean Our Water
Friday - The xenobiotic metabolism: Your body’s daily fight with poisons.
Saturday - Super Cool Science S#!t #10 - Another one bites the dust
Sunday - Medicalization of Pregnancy and Childbirth: The History of Midwives To A Male Dominated Doctoral Profession
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 @ruth-girl, @trumpman, @justtryme90 and @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.
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 17 to December 23, we rewarded 105 different authors who have written a total of 163 different articles. The authors who received both a @steemstem and a @curie vote that week are:
@abigail-dantes, @aboutcoolscience, @afifa, @aklilsteem, @albuluhi, @alexander.alexis, @alexbeyman, @alexs1320, @altherion, @amavi, @archimedes, @azirgraff, @azissuloh, @blessing97, @boyasyie, @boynashruddin, @branbello, @bsameep, @bssman, @camzy, @carloserp-2000, @churchboy, @dber, @dkmathstats, @dojeda, @dutch, @ememovic, @erh.germany, @ertwro, @esteemguy, @exercisinghealth, @fancybrothers, @filotasriza3, @freddbrito, @fredrikaa, @fulsketch, @galotta, @geniusvillain, @gentleshaid, @gra, @green07, @greenrun, @grottbags, @guga34, @hadji, @haphazard-hstead, @harshallele, @herpetologyguy, @illuminatus, @jamesub, @jenara, @joseferrer, @kenadis, @kerriknox, @kharrazi, @kingswisdom, @kryzsec, @laylahsophia, @lordkingpotato, @masterwu, @maticpecovnik, @maxg, @mcw, @melanie00, @mindhacks, @money-dreamer, @mostly.nature, @mountain.phil28, @mountainwashere, @mrs.nobody, @myego13, @mystifact, @nitesh9, @oendertuerk, @omra-sky, @ovij, @pangoli, @pearlumie, @physics-o-mania, @proteus-h, @raviyanda, @replichara, @rickie, @samminator, @samve, @scalextrix, @sco, @shodiya, @simplifylife, @siniy, @st3llar, @tanyaschutte, @tarazkp, @tensor, @thatsweeneyguy, @thegiamarcos, @tormiwah, @tsoldovieri, @tszasz, @turpsy, @valchiz, @valth, @yagoub, @yoes, @zest, @zkalemiss

I trailed @steemstem for a while, but now I just use it to discover authors and curate manually. You know what would make my feed better? If @steemstem resteemed the really brilliant posts your awesome team comes across.

Thanks for trailing @steemstem for some time! This is very kind from you.
Concerning the resteeming, yes this is a very good suggestion. We were doing this in the past but we then stopped. Maybe a resteem of all posts with a strongish steemstem upvote. We will discuss it in the following days!

I'd certainly like to return to our days of resteeming the higher voted posts with the project account. I think this is something that everyone in the team would be on board with. Our goal is to provide exposure for the best authors so it only makes sense that we utilize resteems.
