Cell Reformats Articles Viewed Online

On January 7, Cell publisher Elsevier announced a new format for articles viewed online, using tabs for navigation. Rather than scrolling through the whole article on one page, you can now view each part of the article in separate tabs. Breaking down the articles into segments such as methods, results, and tables, is the new idea Elsevier is trying out with Cell. See a sample of the "article of the future" and also read more about the new format. You can also provide feedback about this new format to the publisher.

Cool Photo

As I browsing for images in Flickr, I came across this one that shows the new building at the College of Pharmacy. Its not very new, but new to me since it was no there before I came back to the U of A as an employee. When I was a student, that area was all parking and a few houses. Amazing how much has changed in the past 10 years. As you can see from the image, the landscaping is well done and my favorite area is where the mesquite trees are at the very bottom.
