Scholarly Video Journals to Increase Productivity in Medical Research and Education Moshe Pritsker, Ph.D. CEO, co-founder JoVE

Productivity in medical research and education Do new research Learn technology Publish

Traditional Scientific Article Position the metaphase spindle at 3 o’clock and hold it with holding pipette. Apply piezo pulses to penetrate the zona pellucida. Touch the metaphase plate with the enucleation pipette. Aspirate the spindle and withdraw the pipette. What does it say??? How can it be used for research or teaching???

New approach: publish science using video online Text doesn’t work? Show it in video! Create new type of science journal: video journal

What users say Dr. Maria Toledo-Rodriguez, University of Nottingham By having the video protocol... anybody can quickly learn the technique whenever it is convenient for her/him saving them lots of time, money and frustrations. Dr. Rich Condit, University of Florida You can't figure out how to do this stuff just from reading the literature, you have to have somebody show you... this is amazing! Lalitha Chandrasekher, PhD student, Georgetown University Thank you for creating and developing such an astounding resource for scientists! This is truly going to rapidly advance progress in all fields of research and the potential applications are endless.
