Sean McBride, Vice Chair, Clinical Strategy, Operations, and Professional Practice at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, shared a post on X:
“I’m taking a firm stand in refusing to spell out acronyms that 99.99% of intended readers of academic articles already know.
If the first time you’re encountering the acronym ‘HPV’ is when you click on an article about the ‘Treatment of HPV Related Cancers’, chances are ya clicked on the wrong article.
In one fell swoop, that would eliminate 40% of queries on proofs. You’re welcome.”
