Skill UI

This skill guides researchers through the critical pre-writing process of evaluating a scientific finding's scope, mechanistic depth, and significance. It stress-tests whether the work constitutes a complete, hypothesis-driven story suitable for top-tier journals, helping authors determine if they need to strengthen the mechanism, collect more converging evidence, or adjust their target journal venue.

A comprehensive guide to restructuring scientific manuscripts from a collection of isolated findings into a single, compelling, and cohesive narrative arc. It forces the story into a Hypothesis → Mechanism → Significance structure, ensuring that every figure advances a central, airtight argument, crucial for top-tier journal submissions.

A comprehensive guide for late-stage polishing of high-impact scientific manuscripts (e.g., for Cell). This skill teaches how to generate three mandatory communication artifacts: structured Highlights (3-4 bullet points, $\le 85$ chars), a third-person eTOC blurb (~50 words) for non-specialists, and a self-contained Graphical Abstract. Focuses on converting complex data into highly consumable, publication-ready narratives.

This comprehensive guide teaches the methodology for crafting professional, evidence-based rebuttal letters in response to demanding peer reviews (e.g., Cell). It instructs users on triaging reviewer comments into actionable categories (Do, Defend, etc.), prioritizing necessary new experiments based on impact and feasibility, and systematically addressing the core 'completeness' gaps demanded by top-tier journals, all while maintaining a respectful and academic tone.

This guide details the stringent requirements for writing high-stakes scientific summaries, such as those required by top-tier journals. It teaches how to condense complex research into a single, unstructured, quantitative paragraph (≤ 150 words) that explicitly names the underlying mechanism, answers the 'how,' and conveys broad significance to a general life-science readership. Focuses on structure, clarity, and impact.

This guide acts as a structured workflow router for scientists preparing manuscripts for high-impact journals like Cell. It doesn't write the paper but diagnoses the current stage (e.g., narrative structure, data deposition, figure quality, citation style) and directs the author to the specific skill needed next, ensuring the manuscript meets the high standards of mechanistic completeness required for publication.

This guide provides a detailed framework for structuring top-tier scientific articles, specifically modeled after Cell Journal standards. It covers the proper flow from Summary to Discussion, emphasizing the use of descriptive subheadings in Results, adhering to STAR Methods instead of free-text methods, and maintaining strict length discipline. Ideal for researchers struggling with manuscript organization or reaching submission stage for high-impact journals.

This guide provides structured best practices for writing high-impact English abstracts for top-tier academic journals. It teaches users to condense complex research into a concise, five-part narrative (Problem, Design, Findings, Mechanism, Contribution), ensuring the abstract is field-readable, quantifiable, and adheres to strict word count limits (typically <= 100 words). Use this when finalizing manuscripts and needing to elevate the academic rigor and polish of the English writing.

A comprehensive guide for transforming complex regression results into self-contained, highly legible figures suitable for top-tier academic journals. It focuses on best practices for visualizing causal inference results (DID, RDD, IV), ensuring that the main findings can be understood by the reader simply by viewing the figure, independent of the surrounding text. Ideal for researchers in econometrics and social sciences.

A highly specialized guide for drafting a rebuttal letter following a revise-and-resubmit (R&R) at top-tier economics journals. It provides a structured, point-by-point framework for professionally conceding, refuting, or upgrading evidence in response to highly technical peer reviewer comments (e.g., identification, modern DID, inference).

A comprehensive guide for drafting and revising highly rigorous academic abstracts for top-tier finance and economics journals. It enforces a strict five-sentence structure (Problem, Data/Method, Findings, Mechanism, Contribution) while ensuring quantitative depth and semantic alignment between Chinese and English versions. It teaches how to eliminate common academic filler phrases and elevate the contribution narrative.

A comprehensive guide for structuring and refining the literature review section of academic manuscripts for top-tier finance and economics journals. It covers the mandatory three-layer structure (Theory, Empirical Evidence, Contribution Gap), optimal Chinese/English citation ratios, and techniques for developing a 'dialogue-based' narrative rather than a simple list, ensuring clear positioning relative to the field's classic theories and recent publications.
