  • The Declaration on Research Assessment (DORA)

    08.12.2023

    There is a pressing need to improve the ways in which the output of scientific research is evaluated by funding agencies, academic institutions, and other parties. To address this issue, a group of editors and publishers of scholarly journals met during the Annual Meeting of The American Society for Cell Biology (ASCB) in San Francisco, CA, on December 16, 2012. The group developed a set of recommendations, referred to as the San Francisco Declaration on Research Assessment. We invite interested parties across all scientific disciplines to indicate their support by adding their names to this Declaration.

    The outputs from scientific research are many and varied, including: research articles reporting new knowledge, data, reagents, and software; intellectual property; and highly trained young scientists. Funding agencies, institutions that employ scientists, and scientists themselves, all have a desire, and need, to assess the quality and impact of scientific outputs. It is thus imperative that scientific output is measured accurately and evaluated wisely.

  • Implications of Neuroscience for Ancient Traditional Philosophical Questions

    06.06.2023

    Neurophilosophy is an interdisciplinary field of study that combines neuroscience and philosophy to better understand the nature of the mind and consciousness. It is based on the idea that advances in our understanding of the brain can shed light on longstanding philosophical questions about the nature of the self, free will, consciousness, and the relationship between the mind and the body. At its core, neurophilosophy is concerned with exploring the relationship between the brain and the mind, and understanding how neural processes give rise to mental phenomena such as consciousness, perception, thought, and emotion. It also seeks to address broader philosophical questions related to the nature of the self, free will, and the relationship between mind and body.

  • The Posterior Cingulate Cortex Again Forgotten

    07.04.2023

    Koch et al., (2022) 'Repetitive TMS applied to the precuneus stabilizes cognitive status in Alzheimer's disease,' we think that some findings are misunderstood and there are methodological problems. Neuromodulation approaches have been investigated for a long time in the treatment of Alzheimer's dementia. On the other hand, the precuneus region, which is the subject of the research, cannot be considered as an isolated region due to its close neighborhood. Precuneus, it is considered the main center of the default mode network (DMN) like the dorso-lateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC). To date, many DLPFC stimulation studies have been performed with repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) has been published. It is difficult to evaluate the effect claimed as a result of the research specific to the precuneus region. Theoretically, the effect can be expected with the excitation of any part of the default network. However, unlike previous rTMS studies that stimulated the DLPFC, the authors chose to stimulate the precuneus, the main center of DMN. φ

  • How Physics is Reflected in Society and Social Life

    25.03.2023

    Physics today is divided into two fields, a separation which concerns size. The first is classical physics – Newtonian mechanics or Newtonian physics. The foundations of Newtonian physics were laid in 1687. This kind of physics examines matter macroscopically, and has been remarkably successful in explaining macroscopic events and has even attained an iconic status of reliability. What gave it that reliability was that if you knew the causes and variables of an event, you could predict the outcome with certainty. By using the predictive rules of classical Newtonian physics, we can exactly predict the dates of future eclipses of the Sun and the Moon, and know the precise positions of galaxies, stars, planets and satellites. The situation in quantum physics, or quantum mechanics, is very different, however. This second branch of physics is relatively new, dating from the beginning of the 20th century, around two centuries after Newton. New research started because classical physics was unable to explain certain events, and in this way quantum mechanics was born. φ

  • A Look at the Future and an Open Call for Scientific Community

    25.03.2023

    What we call science is the systematization of information obtained from nature. Nature has had its own laws from the beginning. Some of these laws are easy to express, while others stretch our understanding and even our sense of logic. Our efforts to understand nature and its workings, that is our production of scientific knowledge, will never end. We may never truly understand the workings of nature, or get close to the real truth. Therefore, it is ridiculous to behave as if we knew all of the workings of nature and to say “this is not scientific, it is in conflict with the (known) laws of science”. The clearest example of this is when we see the workings of quantum physics in biological structures. When nature is working, it does not know the laws of our science and doesn’t even take notice of them. Nature even sometimes winks at us with “anomalies”. We learn from nature but we cannot impose on nature the laws we have learned from it.

  • Discover how others interact with your articles: PlumX Metrics

    29.06.2022

    Article metrics (also known as altmetrics), immediately measure awareness and interest and give us new ways to uncover and tell the stories of article. PlumX Metrics are comprehensive, article-level metrics that provide insights beyond traditional citation metrics. 

    PlumX%20Metrics%205%20categories.png

    PlumX Metrics provide insights into the ways people interact with individual pieces of research output (articles, conference proceedings, book chapters, and many more) in the online environment. Collectively known as PlumX Metrics, these metrics are divided into five categories to help make sense of the large amount of data involved and enable analysis by comparison. PlumX gathers and collates appropriate research metrics for all types of scholarly research output. In a competitive research landscape, PlumX offers metrics to support your research impact footprint along with analysis to assist in case studies or reporting requirements.

  • We add a DOI number from Zenodo to each of articles

    14.06.2022

    We will add a Digital Object Identifier (DOI) number from Zenodo to each of our articles published. What is a DOI? Similar to a bar code for a physical object, a DOI is a unique alpha numeric string assigned to a digital object, such as an electronic journal, article, report, or thesis. Each DOI is unique and serves as a stable, persistent link to the full-text of an electronic item on the Internet.

    mceclip1-cba2eed32c6b489234343069855076bc.png

    Zenodo is derived from Zenodotus, the first librarian of the Ancient Library of Alexandria and father of the first recorded use of metadata, a landmark in library history. 

    Why use Zenodo?

    Safe — your research is stored safely for the future in CERN’s Data Centre for as long as CERN exists.
    Trusted — built and operated by CERN and OpenAIRE to ensure that everyone can join in Open Science.
    Citeable — every upload is assigned a Digital Object Identifier (DOI), to make them citable and trackable.
    No waiting time — Uploads are made available online as soon as you hit publish.
    Versioning — Easily update your dataset with our versioning feature.
    GitHub integration — Easily preserve your GitHub repository in Zenodo.
    Usage statistics — All uploads display standards compliant usage statistics.

  • Archival Resource Keys (ARKs) regulations

    19.05.2022

    mceclip1-aac2ea763b2709a839e1bdd6d7e523e9.png

    We are now complying with Archival Resource Keys (ARKs) regulations and will add ARK number to each of our articles. What is a ARK?  ARKs are similar to DOIs, URNs, and Handles. In contrast, ARKs are cheaper, more flexible, and less centralized. Similar to a bar code for a physical object, a ARK is a unique alphanumeric string assigned to a digital object, such as an electronic journal, article, report, or thesis. Each ARK is unique and serves as a stable, persistent link to the full-text of an electronic item on the Internet. Unlike a URL, a ARK doesn't change over time; even if the item moves to a new location, the ARK stays the same. After joining ARK, we have given a Archival Resource Keys (ARKs) for journal as prefix: 25311.
