For #WorldPolioDay, @asm.org named the University of Pittsburgh a Milestones in Microbiology site to honor Dr. Jonas Salk for developing the world’s first polio vaccine. After use in the early 1950s, it reduced paralytic polio in the U.S. by 96% in only a few years.

A discovery doesn't usually happen as a single moment but in 3 phases:
1. Observing the results from experiments & analyses,
2. Realizing the big story when writing up the paper,
3. Understanding what's truly new about the work when presenting to friends, reviewers & audiences.
