It's the end of the year, and you know what that means: It's time for newspapers, magazines and other publications to share their most-read lists. And we're no different. Below is a list of our most-read original stories. 

Now, what I love about this list is that many of the articles are by our volunteer contributors. I'll talk about a couple.
 
At the very top, you will see an article about the periodic table. Several years ago, we began including in our coverage articles that align with scientific and cultural observances. These articles are way for volunteer contributors to practice communicating science in a fashion that resonates with the public and, often, other scientists. This article was for National Periodic Table Day. 
 
The second article on the list has an interesting back story. This writer is a lipid researcher who is active on Twitter. One day, I saw a Twitter thread that he wrote about fatphobia and how his experiences as a patient, and as an advocate for his father when he was a patient, had influenced his approach to and perception of obesity, in particular as it relates to his own research.  If you did not read this piece when it first came out, I strongly recommend that you do so. It's a personal story and impactful.
 
 Unsurprisingly, many of the stories on this list are about COVID.

Happy reading!

 

1. A brief history of the periodic table

By Deboleena M. Guharay

The periodic table of elements is a common sight in classrooms, campus hallways and libraries, but it is more than a tabular organization of pure substances. Scientists can use the table to analyze reactivity among elements, predict chemical reactions, understand trends in periodic properties among different elements and speculate on the properties of those yet to be discovered.

 

2. Putting body weight in context

By Robert Rosencrans

Excerpt: “I didn’t expect to start seeing the intersections of fatphobia with environmental racism or police violence. I didn’t expect to see them in my medical school classes. Or in my own care. I didn’t think about this issue at all until recently. But once you start seeing the redundant harms larger people are exposed to, it’s hard to stop.”

 

3. US travel bans: Bizarre and ruthless

By Valerio Francioni

Continuing travel restrictions have prevented the author and thousands of other international scholars from seeing their families.

 

4. Life after one year of COVID-19

By multiple contributors

In March 2020, we asked scientists how the pandemic was affecting them personally and professionally. A year later, we asked them how it has changed their lives. Here are their dispatches.

 

5. The impacts of COVID-19 on women’s physical health

By N煤ria Negr茫o

Pregnancy, periods, long COVID and vaccine side effects: lots of questions remain unanswered.

 

6. DNA and COVID-19: What’s the connection?

By Nivedita Uday Hegdekar

Studies have linked virus susceptibility and severity to genes inherited from Neanderthals and to blood type — but not all researchers agree on the results.

 

7. LGBTQ+ scientists in history

By Elizabeth Stivison

Excerpt: “I often feel uncomfortable with these lists, especially when sexual orientation and/or gender identity is speculative. Many LGBTQ+ people in history couldn't come out publicly (and the truth is that many today still can't), and it feels a little intrusive to guess based on a letter or some ambiguous anecdote. But I also know that the good that comes from the visibility of those historical figures is significant. It's important to learn about the contributions LGBTQ+ people have long been making. So I've included in this list people who were public about their identity and/or orientation as well as people who are thought to have been LGBTQ+.”

 

8. ASBMB names 2022 award winners

9. How to write a killer abstract in 10 sentences

By Bill Sullivan

Tell a story by framing your scientific study as an irresistible mystery.

 

10. Progeria: From the unknown to the first FDA-approved treatment

By Ankita Arora

Infants born with progeria seem healthy at first. But they start aging at a pace 10 times faster than normal. Before age 1, weight gain slows, hair starts thinning and then falls out completely, joints may stiffen, and bones weaken. With time, blood vessels clog and connective tissue hardens. Many patients die of heart attack or stroke before they reach the age of 15.
