How to go about contacting an author regarding questions on their research? There is a scientist I am interested in contacting with expertise in peptidomics. I would like to email them to ask if they had ever explored findings from a related area of research. How do I politely contact them for their input?
Send them a brief, polite email. Brief because nobody has time to read huge walls of text from strangers; polite because you want them to help you.
