I typically share this text readability calculator with folks I'm mentoring for grant writing. I use it frequently to make sure my layperson abstracts or summaries read at the right level. Sharing it here in case it is helpful for others. goodcalculators.com/flesch-kinca...

Thanks for highlighting our work, @atranscendedman.bsky.social! Will share more soon on how this work came about (and how we had to challenge many conventions, such as 'there are no viral particles in blood'). Done in partnership with @gmboland.bsky.social. Extra thanks to @adarshc.bsky.social

Boston study tested 168 patient samples using a microfluidic chip that detects intact SARS-CoV-2 particles at just 3 copies/ml. This tool differentiates active infection from RNA remnants, aiding diagnosis and monitoring. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
