Dr Kamar Ameen-Ali - Do you have to be a good writer to be a successful academic?

Dr Kamar Ameen-Ali narrates her blog written for Dementia Researcher.

Are there are some days when all you feel you do is write? We imagine the life of a scientist is spent in the lab running experiments and making discoveries. The reality is far different. The further along Kam progresses in her career, the more time she spends outside the lab and in the office. Writing. But what is she writing about and how do you know if you're any good at it? In this blog Kam considers whether being good at writing is necessary to be a successful researcher and academic.
