Meridian Briefs
One paper in fifteen minutes, with its own figures.
The author on screen beside their figures, answering the same five questions every time. For the reader with fifteen minutes before a meeting, and for the student deciding what to read in full.
The five questions
What is the claim?
One sentence, then the figure that shows it.
How do you know?
The experiment, the baseline and the number that matters.
What would change your mind?
The result that would falsify it, and whether anyone has tried.
Where does it stop?
The limits: scale, data, languages, tasks not tested.
Who should care, and what should they do?
Practitioners, researchers, students: one concrete next step each.
