While I am no expert in biosecurity, your posts on natural and bioengineered fungi pathogens piqued my interests, particularly on topics of crop resilience. I think your posts have unique values that can be added to the Western dominant EA world, and I love seeing more diversity on the EA forum. Unfortunately, I have a feeling that the formatting of your posts might be undermining your very important message. Revewing your several posts I would consider:
- Adding a tl;dr if writing a longer posts - Format your post with headers available while editing your EA forum draft - Crosslink to important and relevant posts such as Max Görlitz map of biosecurity posts - Writing in longer details in general that helps the non-biosecurity reader like me, set the reader up before getting to the main message. - References to peer-review sources helps
Your posts deserve a lot more karma than many others, yet I felt like they fall short on readership because of the above reasons, here are just my 2 cents.
