Journal Club

This could become the central repository for online journal clubs, i.e. an open discussion of published research, similar to what is commonly done in small groups in research institutions. A "journal chat" could complement more static article reviews. This page could serve as a hub to individual article reviews. Outstanding papers could be brought to everybody's attention by highlighting them here.

"The skill of writing is to create a context in which other people can think." ~Edwin Schlossberg ([1]) "Writing gives you the illusion of control, and then you realize it's just an illusion, that people are going to bring their own stuff into it." ~David Sedaris (*1956 [2]) "Whoever in discussion adduces authority uses not intellect but memory." ~Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519 [3])
