What matters more in getting cited -- what you say or how you say it? In our first episode we're visited by <a href="https://smea.uw.edu/faculty/ryan-kelly/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Ryan Kelly</a> from the University of Washington's School of Marine and Environmental Affairs. Ryan is both an ecologist and a lawyer; and his research concerns the interplay between geography, ecology, and genetics in marine species. In this episode, Ryan tells the unpublished stories behind his article "<a href="http://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0167983" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Narrative Style Influences Citation Frequency in Climate Change Science</a>," which he published in the December 2016 edition of <em>PLoS One</em> — an open access peer-reviewed journal — along with co-authors Annie Hillier and Terrie Klinger.
