@melaniejoly Transparency on the safety of the airport may also be helpful. I was in Beirut in July 2006 when the airport was bombed, forcing my family to wait 10 days to be evacuated by sea. I’d like to know if our government is taking any action to prevent that scenario from reoccurring.

@scicommelia Thanks for this idea! I initially had more examples in the survey (eg, techy shots of wires / computers with glowing lights perform very well online!) but I cut them out so perhaps I’ll add them back in! Along with a few sample pics (when I get em!). Thank you!

This is very much a pilot, so please do not hesitate to reach out if you have feedback on the survey or any other part of the process. I want to make it as low-lift and easy for researchers as possible — I very much appreciate your already limited time!

@sama I’m curious how well sora handles jargon (vs descriptions) for biomedical processes, especially considering there is not a ton of clearly annotated, open access video source material
