An old credo in academia reads Publish or perish. §But what the credo fails to mention is that current §publications are largely published in only one §language English. This book aims to examine §variation in biomedical writing according to the §authors countries of origin and first language. The §significance of these studies regards the growing §number of second language (L2) specialized §researchers attempting to publish their research in §national and international English-language §journals, but who find themselves locked out of the §discussion and unable to contribute ideas and §innovations to the biomedical fields due to §different linguistic and discourse conventions. The §present examination aims to provide a more thorough §and quantitative understanding of the prototypical §linguistic components in biomedicine, and to suggest §how word-, sentence-, and discourse-level structures §can be researched, taught, and developed into §workshop or educational materials. This improved §understanding is expected to provide a powerful §apparatus for the promotion of L2 English writers in §biomedical fields.
