      The papers I write are for academic journals. I write about the different parts of my project to share the results so other people can use them or learn from them. What I write in each paper is different, but they all follow a similar structure (which you might recognise a bit from science class when writing up an experiment): background to the problem, methods, results, discussion and conclusion.
      I have written a paper about the information I found from surveying and interviewing amputees and clinicians. I’m also looking to write a paper about the maths techniques I’m using to create computer model of the socket of an artificial limb.
