Beachcombing for bioscience


Recent developments in bioscience are reported in a business-oriented publication, called SciBX, a joint venture by Nature Publishing Group and Biocentury.


Two widely accepted and credible reasons to publish are to recognise and endorse technological and scientific advances and to avoid re-inventing the wheel. Although this is all well and good, with the mass of literature produced every year and the proliferation of new journals, it is a daunting task to sift through and find the information we need.
