Some journals capitalise on researchers' and clinicians' need for publications by luring them in with flattering emails, only to subject poor editing practices threatening invoices. The best way avoid this is learn spot the warning signs, writes <b>Eva Amsen</b>
cAMP-dependent Ras activation has been demonstrated in numerous cell types, particularly of neuronal (including melanoma cells) and endocrine origin, but the activator involved not identified. In B16 cells, cAMP activates Ras/Erk pathway, leading initially to stimulation subsequently long term (>24-h) inhibition melanogenesis (dendrite extension melanin production). Here we identify CNrasGEF as guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) involved. We demonstrate that is expressed endogenously...
Several scientists and science communicators have turned to the Internet discuss through weblogs (blogs). An interview with five bloggers suggests that non-scientists alike benefit in various ways from reading writing blogs.
Let's face it: not all PhD students and postdocs will become lab heads. Every few years, the National Science Foundation surveys doctorate recipients in USA about their career progression, latest published data (collected 2006) show that only one quarter of biomedical science

The Sainsbury Laboratory at the University of Cambridge is a new research institute that aims to achieve an integrated understanding plant development. Its Associate Director Editor Development, Ottoline Leyser, who also Professor Plant Development Cambridge. We recently caught up with Leyser and asked her about own interests.When did you first become interested in development?To me, development has always been much more interesting than animal development, because its plasticity. In plants,...

When fashion designers, retailers, and families attend Vancouver Kids Fashion Week, they expect to see models donning the latest in children’s fashion. But at an event last October, attendees saw scientists as well. Researchers from Michael Kobor’s lab University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada, had set up a booth showcase some model organisms study. The twist: Those later appeared on runway, line outfits created by designers. Mechanical engineer Angela Chang designer Harry Umen...
