Time to Publication: A Problem-but There Are Solutions

The solutions are already there.

I would like to offer my congratulations to Juli Coffin for her thoughtful, wise and well-written letter on the recent actions by the Commonwealth Government in remote Aboriginal communities in the Northern Territory of Australia. As a researcher who has had the privilege of being able to listen to and document insights from our Aboriginal peoples and the many health professionals who provide c...

Deception and Fraud in the Publication of Scientific Research: Are There Solutions?

A number of events in the U.S. and abroad have refocused the scientific community on historical issues of whether, and how, integrity of our technical literature can be assured. Solutions to this problem are neither simple nor certain. Professional societies have addressed scientific misconduct, and effective responses by the research community will require cooperation of scientific publication...

P30: Are There Anxious Genes?

Anxiety comprises many clinical descriptions and phenotypes. A genetic predisposition to anxiety is undoubted; however, the nature and extent of that contribution is still unclear. Extensive genetic studies of the serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) transporter (5-HTT) gene have revealed how variation in gene expression can be correlated with anxiety phenotypes. Complete genome-wide linkage s...

A Model in Which There Are Jech–kunen Trees but There Are No Kurepa Trees

By an ω1–tree we mean a tree of power ω1 and height ω1. We call an ω1–tree a Jech–Kunen tree if it has κ–many branches for some κ strictly between ω1 and 21 . In this paper we construct the models of CH plus 21 > ω2, in which there are Jech–Kunen trees and there are no Kurepa trees. An partially ordered set, or poset for short, 〈T,<T 〉 is called a tree if for every t ∈ T the set {s ∈ T : s <T t...
