I use AggreWell 800 plates for the protocol I follow in EB creation. When spinning down the iPSCs in these plates the media manages to escape the wells (particularly the edge wells), even if the plates are parafilmed.
Has anyone else had this issue?

Hi Dulcie,
My name is Michael Hiatt and I am a Senior Scientist at STEMCELL Technologies. My team supports the AggreWell™ product line.
Regarding your issue, if there is no physical damage to your plate observable it is highly unlikely your plate is leaking. I suspect what is happening is related to the pretreatment step of the plates with Anti-Adherence Rinsing Solution (AARS) as per the protocol. It is important to use care during the pretreatment steps, as any AARS that spills onto the walls of the wells can create a wetted track that links the media in the well with either the space between wells, or the outside of the plate. In the former case, the media height in the well will cause the media to "siphon" into the spaces between wells. In the latter case, the media can "siphon" out of the gap between the plate and lid and escape the plate altogether. To avoid this, use care to ensure that the AARS is dispensed only INTO the wells and not up or over the well walls.
I hope this helps! If you have any more questions, feel free to contact your local Rep or reach out to us through LiveChat on our website.
Kind regards,
Michael Hiatt

Keeping up with scientific papers on almost any subject is now a daunting task since the number of papers published is increasing exponentially. For example, within 12 months of Covid-19 being named in February 2020, there were over 300,000 citations in Google Scholar and about 50 of those papers had already been retracted. Today there are over a million citations on the topic. It is just not possible to read them all and Covid is not an isolated example.
In part, the problem stems from a change in publication practice from long established subscription journals run by societies for their members to the professional long-established publishers selling bundled journal titles to libraries - in which publication is slow but free to the author, to a new business model where authors pay thousands of dollars to publish quickly on-line and where peer review is basic or non-existent. Alongside that has been the rise of media managers promoting papers from their institute as novel and important together with a pressure to “publish or perish” to justify grant applications and tenure.
Academic publishing is now a US$12 billion industry with a return on capital of about 40%. This has led to the selling of fake papers, selling co-authorships, manipulation of h-scores, and the rise of the so-called “paper mills” that sell complete papers and authorships online and probably are involved in money laundering. Scientists too are cheating with plagiarism, AI graphics and text.
How then do you judge the scientific merits of a paper you read and cite?

I think that the main cause for this flood is the misuse of bibliometrics - counting publications, citations etc. to evaluate the work of individual researchers instead of looking at quality. See my reply to https://www.researchgate.net/post/About_metrics_for_classification_of_researchers and the links to more discussions therein.

The truth is, there’s no exact formula for deciding how much time to spend on your own social efforts.
For example our company has multiple social media managers working around the clock, while smaller shops may only dedicate a few hours to social every week.
I believe that social media is a powerful tool, but one of the most important uses of social networks for business is to engage with their current and prospective customers.
The engagement portion of your schedule can be split into two different initiatives:
Responding to inbound messages
Looking for new opportunities
Personally with my team we spend an average of 18 hours per day because our company works worldwide.
