Exploring Health and Science: Insights from ILLUMINATION Publications
Written on
Chapter 1: Monthly Highlights from ILLUMINATION
In May 2024, the ILLUMINATION Editorial Team shared updates, showcasing the remarkable progress of their publication, Health and Science, which attracted 40,000 views last month. Writers interested in health and science topics are encouraged to join the community. Dr. Yildiz has effectively guided the transition from Medium to Substack while maintaining connections between the two platforms.
After curating various stories from Health and Science, I penned a poignant piece on phytic acid, an issue that resonates with many parents. A standout contribution by Brenda Mahler was featured, honoring Aiden, the owner of Illumination Gaming. For those concerned about Petechiae and Purpura, our chief editor has provided well-researched articles that delve into these distinct yet related health conditions.

- Insights into Purpura and Purpura Fulminans Management
With 174 collections compiled, new readers can explore various topics. The editorial team, led by Aiden, is diligently working to publish numerous drafts and introduce new writers. Aiden recently showcased his latest editorial efforts, achieving 194 features.
Subsection 1.1.1: Aiden's Farewell and Continued Support
Aiden's farewell from the boost program signifies his ongoing support as an editor and curator. His dedication is commendable, and we appreciate the hard work of our volunteer editors, who face challenges in their roles. Dr. Yildiz's recent article emphasizes that this platform prioritizes community engagement over monetary gain.
Section 1.2: Future Initiatives for Writers
Looking ahead, we aim to provide robust support for every writer on Substack. Recently, I initiated a daily bonus feature that highlights boosted stories, although I was unable to do so this weekend due to family commitments. Aiden's curated collection from May 16–31, 2024, features boosted stories worth exploring.
Chapter 2: New Directions in Writing
My new publication, Health and Science, is gaining momentum, mirroring the success of ILLUMINATION. Today, I released my first newsletter, which has already garnered thousands of views. You can delve into the details in my newsletter, where I also share curated health and science stories from the ILLUMINATION archives.
Through these pieces, I hope to offer valuable insights to readers. Additionally, I documented Australian state policies on reproductive rights, hoping to provide guidance to others, as these policies are less contentious compared to those in the US.
Section 2.1: Reflections on Reproductive Rights
As I explored the complexities surrounding abortion in the US, I also shared my perspective on optimism amidst challenges. Articles like "After Cancer & Suicide, Now the Censorship Target is Dementia" and "Are Writers Paid 4 Times for the Reads & Engagement of Friends of Medium?" continue to provoke thought.
Subsection 2.1.1: Editorial Highlights
Dr. Bruno Soriano Pignataro MD/PhD's editorial review on vascular access for chemotherapy offers essential insights, while I also encourage reading exceptional stories by retired scientists.
As part of our outreach, we’ve introduced interviews with new writers like Matthew Bamberg and Sylvain Zyssman, who provide fresh perspectives and experiences.
In conclusion, the wealth of stories and insights shared through ILLUMINATION Publications continues to inspire. We invite you to explore and engage with our community as we collectively navigate the realms of health and science.
