[Image Description: An XKCD comic titled "Types of Scientific Paper". There are 12 papers drawn in a grid. Each one has a title in all capital letters, along with a series of lines and boxes to represent writing and images. The titles read:
1: We put a camera somewhere new.
2: Hey, I found a trove of old records! They don’t turn out to be particularly useful, but still, cool!
3: My colleague is wrong and I can finally prove it.
4: The immune system is at it again.
5: We figured out how to make this exotic material, so email us if you need some.
6: What are fish even doing down there.
7: This task I had to do anyway turned out to be hard enough for its own paper.
8: Hey, at least we showed that this method can produce results! That’s not nothing, right?
9: Check out this weird thing one of us saw while out for a walk.
10: We are 500 scientist and here’s what we’ve been up to for the last 10 years.
11: Some thoughts on how everyone else is bad at research.
12: We scanned some undergraduates.
