I have been asked to submit a paper on a special issue of Genes- MDPI. The impact factor of the journal is showing to be 3.4 but I saw conflicting articles about the MDPI journals being a predatory one. Though the editor of the issue is a reputed person in the field, I am bit confused about the journal in general. What are your thoughts?
Relevant answer
Answer
I think this is a complicated question. I did a quick search and found the IF to be even higher (1) than the figure you quoted. That means that journal is cited a lot, if that's useful to you. But, as we know, and has been discussed in other parts of this platform, IF is not the only factor to consider. There are many other metrics used.
Personally, I would not be able to afford the amount of the fees that they charge so publishing in that journal would never be an option for me.

I would understand a no-payment-for-review policy for journals that don't charge APC and avail publications through open access.
But journals that sell publications and/or charge APCs should be paying experts who review the works before publication. NO?
Relevant answer
Answer
This is an age-old debate. Publishers are not going to pay reviewers if they can get away with it. They want to keep their profit margins as high as possible in a very competetive market. On the other hand, if reviewers are paid - that runs a risk that reviewers are 'only in it for the money' - and that could be quite chaotic as 'unscrupulous' reviewers seek to receive maximum payment for minimum feedback.

Hi scholars,
I have a silly question about how to generate accurate statistics for publications by year or field as in the attach example. It seems that Scopus or Web of Science has normally been used with their automatically generating graph functions. However, it does not generate well statistics about patents and papers from the journals that are not in their system. What about Google Scholar and Google Patent if the number of each search counts is recorded with suitable keywords? The problem with Google Scholar is perhaps it is overcounting by including the presentations, lab-notes or book chapters from the same book. What is the best search engine for this task and is their any mathematics formula to minimise the standard deviation of false counts?

Answer
Thanks for your answer and sorry for this very late reply!
I should have been more precise in my former message. The sections, I am talking about, are generally located at the entrance of prehistoric cave/rock shelters. They are thus subject to climatic/biotic forcing (rain, wind, frost, biological development,...). They have not been backfilled as they are used as stratigraphic references.
The main solution we are able to suggest now is to protect them under a roof. Sections will be protected from rain; it will reduce the effects of wind, frost, and biological development. I am nevertheless wondering if another solution is possible.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

What justification do universities have for re-evaluating peer-reviewed and published publications prior to promoting lecturers?
Relevant answer
Answer
One of the reasons is most likely the fact that not every paper is published according to the same scientific standards. I am immediately thinking about predatory journals. These are journals that are suspected not to follow the proper standards (like proper peer review).
If a candidate has a list of publications where a significant number of the journals where these papers are published in are potentially predatory (for example the journal or the publisher is mentioned in the Beall’s list (https://beallslist.net/standalone-journals/or https://beallslist.net/ respectively) then I can imagine that the evaluation committee will have a closer look to the individual papers. Since a paper in a suspect journal is not automatically of poor quality.

Key metrics are citation numbers, promotion and rank of users of the applicable research methods.
Relevant answer
Answer
I think that higher ranked journals do favor quantitative articles, for two reasons. One is that these articles are more likely to engage in theory testing around the "big issues" in a field. In contrast, qualitative articles are more likely to be exploratory and to generate hypotheses rather than test theories.
In addition, quantitative researchers are more likely to be the recipients of external research funds, which again makes them more likely to produce "big studies." In contrast, qualitative studies tend to be smaller and to use a more targeted basis for data collection.
Mixed methods fall somewhere in the middle, but two of the most prominent designs, sequential exploratory (qual --> QUAN) and sequential explanatory (QUAN --> qual) are driven by quantitative methods.
But as a sociologist, I see these as historical and structural issues, rather than anything related to the merits of the different methods. Different methods serve different purposes, and I think researchers should always begin with a careful consideration of the purposes they want to pursue -- and this is particularly important for new researchers, who are considering they kinds of goals that they want to pursue throughout their career.

Answer
Dear Evan Flynn ,
Consider this as a hard lesson. Unfortunately for you they were transparent about the (way too high) APC (https://norcaloa.com/PYBT/guidelines-to-author). Provided that you want to go for the official way and since you already send your manuscript you don’t have that many options if you want NOT to publish:
-1. Pay the withdrawal fee
If you accept the fact that they will publish your accepted manuscript you can opt. for:
-2. Pay but ask for substantial waiver (50% or more)
-3. Or pay nothing. Two things can happen: they will publish anyway (since they need content) or they will keep your paper for an unknown period
It depends on how much you value the work you’ve put into this paper: if it is high valuable to you go for option 1 (but make sure you have an official withdrawal statement) or if it is not that extremely important you might go for option 2 or 3.
Best regards.

Hi Folks,
Have you investigated publications associated with COVID-19 host risk factors and immunopathogenesis related research?
We are all aware that SARS-CoV-2 infection and disease risk factors are complex, resulting in widely varying outcomes, ranging from asymptomatic to severe illness, and death. To be able to evaluate one's own risk related to COVID-19, multiple contributing factors must be considered, including the well known and frequently discussed risk factors of old age, obesity, diabetes, social circumstances, environmental circumstances, and other commonly described co-morbidities along with SARS-CoV-2 variant behaviors. However, the well known and openly discussed risk factors are insufficient to explain the widely varying outcomes of SARS-CoV-2 exposure. Therefore, in the commonly used public domain information sources, some information is missing concerning additional, lesser discussed, but potentially critically important risk factors. It is clear to me that there is no single factor that can determine any particular individual's risk, therefore more information is needed to aid in risk assessment. In no way is this information outcome deterministic, and only represents additional statistical factors to consider when assessing one's own risk to exposure to SARS-CoV-2.
Well, I recently started looking into some of this research, and I would like to share some research that I think could be very important, and ultimately shed some more light on COVID-19, human host immunopathogenesis, and risk. Some of these papers summarize and evaluate research, performed by others, on various host factors that may be additional indicators of SARS-CoV-2 infection and associated disease severity risk. I have included links to articles, preprints, and studies so that we all can be aware of established and up and coming research. All of these articles are open and freely available to the public. I have also included a link to the Wikipedia website on global blood type distribution as a general reference. Do you know your blood type?
I am providing this information to you in the role of a Pure Scientist as described by Rojer A Pielke Jr. in his book titled "The Honest Broker: Making Sense of Science in Policy and Politics." I let you interpret the information and decide on its importance and relevance.

I am a PhD student and am currently working on metabolite profiles of some marine invertebrates.
While analysing some raw data generated from LC-MS, HRMS, NMR and FTIR, I was told by some researchers that these raw data, once submitted to a journal as supporting files, cannot be used further for any other analysis. For each analysis I need to generate the raw data again, otherwise it will be treated as a case of self-plagiarism.
I can see that my raw data has a potential of producing three distinct publications. I can analyse different parts of my raw data differently to present distinct conclusions.
But generating all the raw data again from these analyses, and that too for each publication, does not look sustainable to me. And clubbing all three publications in one also does not seem to be a good option here.
So I would like to know your views on this matter as a researcher and also as an Editor/Reviewer. Also, please share your similar experiences and solutions to it.
Relevant answer
Answer
It depends. Much data, for example fisheries records, are published for a given purpose - for example to manage a fishery. Many years after that data was published, it may provide other researchers with other information - for example on understanding "shifting baselines". There are many very good pieces of research using historic datasets. My herbarium vouchers are a form of "data". They are lodged in public Herbaria across Australia. The Herbarium staff make the vouchers, and the associated environmental data, available to researchers around the world. They do not limit the number of times any particular voucher may be used to provide a datapoint in someone's research. Those of us who contribute these data rarely hear about their reuse unless we subscribe to platforms like Bionomia. Over a career collecting environmental data I have much that I may never explore fully. I use platforms like the Atlas of Living Australia's BioCollect platform to host my old datasets. It is possible that one day someone may use the hypersaline lake diatom and physico-chemical data from Australia to develop a "diatom metric" index of water quality for these understudied habitats... or for gnammas, or coastal lagoons...
IAs you know what analyses you plan to subject the dataset to, maybe you would be better served in clubbing a group of papers together that look at the different things you have extracted from the dataset, and then provide the entire group to one journal to publish as a "set".
But I would not like for you to have the opinion that data may only be used once then needs be discarded. What a waste of effort. Well conserved datasets, with excellent metadata relating to the methodologies and data collection, can be valuable into the future, in ways we have no current understandings about.

International exchanges are inevitable in order to develop our projects and to ensure a sufficient critical base for the research. This confronts us with the problem of translating ideas, concepts and results that have developed in our local working language. As we know, English nowadays plays the role of the pivotal language in most conferences and publications. My intention is not to argue with this position -- a pivotal language is needed -- but to understand what are the main problems raised by writing and communicating in a language that is not the one in which the work is done.
English speakers themselves must question the meaning of words, sometimes neologisms, used by a non-English speaker. Of course, what is at stake is not the words but the meaning they convey. These issues are being addressed in the study of learning mathematics in a second language, or in the study of the variety and variability of teachers' vocabularies in different languages.
As researchers the issue is somewhat different. In particular, we must coin words and expressions to name phenomena or concepts in our own working language and then the challenge of translating them, or to understand words and expressions specific to the domain coming from another cultural and linguistic environment-- sometimes via the pivotal language.
I am preparing a short essay on these issues. I will appreciate your contributions, hence my questions:
Do you have examples to share or any particular experience? What do you think about the reasons for these difficulties and the impact they may have on your own communication?
Relevant answer
Answer

Answer
A tachograph is a device fitted to a vehicle that automatically records its speed and distance, together with the driver's activity selected from a choice of modes. The drive mode is activated automatically when the vehicle is in motion, and modern tachograph heads usually default to the other work mode upon coming to rest. The rest and availability modes can be manually selected by the driver whilst stationary.

Hi, I plan to knock down a gene in immortalized keratinocyte (Ker-CT from ATCC). In the spec sheet, it was mentioned that these cells were immortalized with h-Tert and CDK4 carrying puromycin as their selection marker. Theoretically, it would be safer to select different selection antibiotics, however puromycin is the only one available for my gene of interest.

If your cells are already resistant to puromycine, you will have no selection of your recombinant cells. You could do a cotransfection with another plasmid carrying a selection.

In many publications etc. when discussing about centrifuging parameters (in g) you can see the x before the unit g. When you want to say that some distance is for example 100 m, you don't have to say it is 100 times one meter so you don't put 100 x m. So why is the x put in front of g almost everywhere? Is it to do that it is not an SI-unit or something? I can't remember seeing such a way of writing it with an times symbol x in front of other non-SI-units.

Relative Centrifugal Force (RCF) or g-force (both are the same; RCF is reported in units of gravity) is a measurement of the gravitational force that a sample experiences.

It really depends on the type of model and the input size of your model. For example, I worked with a dataset of ~100GB of satellite images and it was possible for me to train a complex CNN using my personal workstation (64GB, NVIDIA Quadro) because the model required small input patches of 64x64x4 pixels. However, for another project where I needed to process videos of 128x128x100, I needed to process it in an HPC because it was not possible to train it even with small mini-batches. This dataset was smaller but the model was more complex. The lesson is that the size of the dataset does not determine your hardware needs.

Dear Alesha,
My research evidenced that silica gel, the main reaction product from waste glass dissolution, can be significantly stabilized by its interaction with polymerized C-S-H. Moreover, silica gel can be also modified with Ca from CaCO3 , which also enhances the hydrolysis resistance. We believe that modified silica gel can be a new promising hydraulic cementitious phase, but I need to do more research in this regard.
I agree with Alex, achieving geopoymerization with waste glass as precursor is quite complicated. Because of the low Al content, the polymerization process of silica gel can take several weeks. In a recent submitted paper, we tried to promote polymerization through constant curing at 60°C, with pastes developing more than 100 MPa at 28 days. However, the pastes had drastic strength losses afterwards, result of drying and polymeric shrinkage.
On the other hand, the formation of a hydraulic alkali-activated cement (AAC) with good mechanical properties is feasible (1-year mortars up to 29 MPa).

Theoretically, there should be as few restrictions as possible in such matters in the world of science. Science should develop in an unhampered way. Whether less restrictions and regulations can be developed to a greater extent by innovative solutions.
On the other hand, the more authors who have written a specific publication together, the more difficult it is to objectively evaluate the contribution of individual co-authors to the creation of a specific publication. There are several pages of scientific articles that have been written by over 100 authors. Usually, these are also members of research teams for large-scale research projects.
In addition, in the last dozen or so years, research has shown that the quantitative proportion of single-author scientific texts is falling relative to the total of scientific publications being produced. Therefore, more scientific multi-authorial publications have been created in recent years in comparison to single-author ones. What are the reasons?
In the light of the above, the following questions arise:
Why do more and more scientists prefer to publish in multi-author scientific texts than single-author ones? Is the main determinant of the increase of established research teams, whose members conduct similar or the same research projects and jointly publish research results?
In addition, new questions arise in connection with the development of new information technologies:
What is the importance of using the internet to popularize scientific knowledge? Does online information globalization have its share in this matter? Can publication in multi-author texts increase the scope in terms of popularizing specific scientific knowledge, developed new research concepts, results of research carried out, etc. using new online media, including online science portals? Is this the probability of developing scientific cooperation on a national, but also international and global scale? Are there any opportunities for the citation of scientific publications?

In experimental studies of any processes, it is impossible to qualitatively and quickly create an installation, conduct experiments, process them, and generalize the results obtained. Therefore, it is beneficial to work as a team. And you can also write articles together, delimiting responsibility for the paragraphs of the article. This approach speeds up the process and the discussion.

Hello everyone. I have conducted PL measurements on CsPbBr3 nanocrystals at 10 K. I observed a significant power-dependent blueshift (~50 meV) and spectral broadening as the laser power was raised from 1 W/cm^2 to 30 W/cm^2. I estimated that the range of induced carrier densities is around 10^14 to 10^15 cm^-3.
Given the typical temperature-dependent shift of the PL energy in this material, a 50 meV blue shift could be explained by an increase in temperature of around 150 K. However, I do not have any feeling for how strong the laser-induced heating should be in this material, under the given conditions.
As such, I was wondering if there was a simple way to confirm or dismiss the laser-heating argument in this situation.

Thank you for your answer. Indeed if this were a typical semiconductor like GaAs, I would expect a heating induced red shift. However, lead halide perovskites like CsPbBr3 exhibit a blue shift with increasing temperature. To my understanding, this is because the orbitals contributing to the valence and conduction band edges are reversed, as compared to typical semiconductors.
As such, there is no simple way to distinguish between band filling and laser heating.
However, band filling is unlikely at my excitation density, because the exciton binding energy is around 40 meV, meaning that there are no free carriers available, even up to room temperature. To observe band filling i would need to have significant exciton screening, which would require around 10^21 cm^-3, by my estimate.
Similarly, I believe I may be able to exclude laser heating as well, since the blue shift stops above a certain laser power (i did not mention this initially, to keep the discussion as simple as possible, but after a while I realised that this might just be my answer). So if the material were indeed around 150K, then i would still expect some further shift and broadening as I increase the laser power further. Since this does not happen, I can exclude laser heating as the reason for my observations.
I am wondering if the blue shift may be due to a filling of shallow trap states, as I expect the material to have a trap concentration somewhere between 10^14 and 10^17 cm^-3. Then, excitation from 10^14 to around 10^15 cm^-3 should be enough to observe some trap filling. However, I haven't found many examples of this in the literature so I cannot say if this always results in a blue shift and broadening, as I observed. Are you, by chance, familiar with shallow trap filling?
Kind regards,
Claudiu

Respected researchers i am currently involved in making solid solutions of carbide powders.I am aware of calculations in weight percent.But a lot of publications are mentioning cermet composition in volume percent.
Please find the enclosed attachment.I am trying to guess their sample respective weights.
For e.g my sample of Nbc12Ni for a 25g samples in 3g Ni and 22g Nbc..In wt%?
I am curious about the calulations done in the article.
FOr eg a Cermet Nbc12Ni The binder volume is 12% and they have calculated weight percent as Nbc13.49Ni with Total density 7.92g/cm3(of the mixed unsintered powders i assume)
Can someone explain how did they calculate?and how can i trace back to their sample composition in Grams?
Cermet Binder volume Composition wt% Total density
NbC12Ni10VC 12 Ni 10 VC NbC-13.85 Ni-7.40VC 7.72
NbC12Ni15VC 12 Ni 15 VC NbC-14.04 Ni-11.25VC 7.61
The significance of Vol% compositions in my thoughts are not a great measure because the powders have not been pressed yet.
Would be obliged if som1 can explain this calculation methodology.
Relevant answer
Answer
Mass percentages are used when mixing a composition: you can weigh the component exactly and know how much mass percent of each component is in your mixture. Volume percentages are much less suitable for mixes. The opposite is the case when analyzing the finished material (regardless of whether it is melted, sintered or injected). For material analysis, micrographs are analyzed using optical microscopy or SEM. The finished image analysis gives a result in percent by volume. To compare whether your finished material corresponds to your mixture, you have to use a unit: either you convert your mixture into volume percent, or the other way around, you convert the volume composition of the finished material into mass percent. In both cases you need the densities of the individual phases.

Hello everyone! Out of curiosity: how many publications did you have just before your career as a postdoc started? And how many were first-author publications? This is not often talked about in academia, although the rat race for publications is (sadly) omnipresent in the current system. For those who are doing a PhD and aspire an academic career, this can feel quite attainable. So it would be good for me to get some responses from those who are further ahead on the trajectory to get a realistic view on what the necessary requirements are to achieve the same. Thanks a lot!

Recently, I have been using the Invitrogen™ LIVE/DEAD™ Viability/Cytotoxicity Kit according to the Fluorescence Microplate Protocol.
Although it is not written in the protocol, I also prepared dead and live wells containing calcein-AM and ethidium homodimer-1 separately as it is needed in the calculation part.
But there is a part about the test results that I really couldn't figure out.
According to the results, the value I get is more than 100 when I sum up the percentages of the living cells and dead cells for the same well.
Commonly, I expect some cells to die, some cells to survive, but some cells to go into apoptosis.
When I reviewed the publications, I saw that most publications use the microscopy method. In fact, I read a few comments about the microplate protocol is not working properly in this assay.
I wonder is there anyone who has had the same problem before or if I am making a mistake while applying the protocol?

The best is to take photos in microscope attached to computer as it has inbuilt software to add scale bars, and also the image clarity is better which is required for tissue culture publications.
But if you don't have that set-up, you can take pictures on any light microscope and simultaneously take pictures of ruler scale at different magnification (which are used for clicking photos).
Then using image J you can add scale bar, it's free software

Dear Community,
I am interested in receiving feedback from people that finished their PhDs, but also from people judging the candidacies for academic positions.
As PhDs we all heard about the famous "Publish or perish" to describe the importance to publish during your PhD if you want to get a job more easily when finishing. I am asking mostly in social sciences because it is my field, but I am also interested in receiving feedback from other fields as well.
The time and effort we put in publications during our PhD, is it worth the struggle? Is it really making things easier when applying for academic positions, or is the teaching experience more important for instance? Many colleagues ask themselves this question. I am not denying the importance to publish your research, but I am curious to see how things are presented in other countries, universities, and fields.

I wish to get your opinion about publishing single new species (with or without molecular data* /and single strain) or new records in an International Journal of repute.
Recently, we have seen many reputed journals are discouraging single new species publications.
Your observations and recommendations of best journals (not having page charges and possibly having some Impact Factor) for single new species and new records publications would help budding mycologists.
*Without molecular data meant for non-cultivable (non-culturable) fungi.
Relevant answer
Answer
We should be aware, that single-species studies have low citation potential and it is interesting only for very narrow audience of involved taxonomists. Considering mechanics of Impact Factor, it is true, that high impacted journals are discouraging and refusing to publish such studies and they keep their interest on papers aiming for broad audience. However, also those journals enabled a way to publish a new species in their series of comprehensive papers. You can submit your description there. However it come with a price, that you will be be only a co-author of the paper. Such a series are Fungal Planet Description Sheets (Persoonia), Fungal Biodiversity Profiles (Cryptogamie,Mycologie), Fungal Diversity Notes (Fungal Diversity) etc. Or you can still try publish your paper in some "less picky" journals such as FUSE, Mycotaxon, Phytotaxa or MycoKeys (Charged). For the new records there is a lot of local journals which can accept such studies e.g. for the Italy Italian Botanist, also there is Czech Mycology where you can publish well conducted studies from any area worldwide. There is also Kavaka, Turkish Botanical Journal and many more.
I would like also to emphasize, that despite of the plethora of possibilities, I believe, that in-depth conducted taxonomical study dealing with all members of the certain group is worth more than single-species papers. I think, we should primarily aim for the complex taxonomical study, while such papers speak whole story of the group.

I am trying to run some lipid analysis on ground coral samples.

I would like to know if using dichloromethane instead of chloroform could affect my results. Any suggestions?
Relevant answer
Answer
Hi Cinzia, some labs prefer not to use chloroform because of its toxicity, but it outperforms dichloromethane as a solvent for some of the longer-chained fatty acids. We use a 1:1:1 v/v mixture of chloroform:dichloromethane:methanol for the initial extraction step and that works very well (as can be traced by standards; without chloroform e.g. 23:0 standard hardly goes into solution). It is a bit of a trade-off.

Understanding the Quartiles of the Journals
The journal's quartiles assist us in determining the journal's reliability and quality. It's based on the Scimago Journal Ranking (SJR), which isn't the same as the impact factor.
SJR was developed by a research group in the 2000s using Scopus data. Unlike Impact Factor, SJR publishes open access and covers a wider spectrum of publications. SJR Scopus considers the overall number of citations as well as the weight of each reference. As a result, SJR is utilized to determine the journal's quartile.
A high quartile in Scopus means that the journal sets research trends, and its authors are experts in their field.
If a journal is in the Q2 range, it does not imply that all research papers from all fields will be given Q2 credibility. It will only apply to selected specializations dependent on the scope of the journal.
Quartiles are bands of serial titles that have been grouped together because they occupy a similar position within their subject categories.
The quartiles are:
Quartile 1: serial titles in 99-75th percentiles
Quartile 2: serial titles in 74-50th percentiles
Quartile 3: serial titles in 49-25th percentiles
Quartile 4: serial titles in 24-0 percentiles

Based on a resent question; what is the difference between a saprophyte and a saprotroph?
In Greek saprophyte would be saprós (“putrid; decayed; rotten”) and phyte ("plant") thus meaning a plant that will live of dead or decaying organic matter. Saprotroph on the other hand, would be saprós (“putrid; decayed; rotten”) and trophē (“food; nourishment”) and thus include all organism with this lifestyle.
It seems as if the term saprophyte would be incorrect as plants are in actuality not saprophytic. The same problem comes in with saprophytic vs saprotrophic. My concern is this, why were we taught that "saprophytic" or saprotrophic fungi are saprophytes as this would seem to be incorrect. Recent publications and textbooks still refer to saprophytes. Has the term saprophyte been abolished or regardless of the difference we now consider saprophyte and saprotroph as synonyms?

Answer
Just now, both terms saprophyte and saprotrophic are be used in the field of fungi papers. So, both terms refer to fungi which feed and grow on dead things such as: plant debris, organic materials, dung etc.
