Formula

Scientific publishing is above all about novelty and validity. Papers, grant applications and lectures all rightly require the imprimatur of peer approval to enter into the annals. However, from time-to-time most researchers encounter the obstacle of having a nugget of information or an idea insufficiently refined to merit conventional primary publication. Yet such incomplete information could still impact research progress if it could be integrated with current knowledge of the field and shared with others. MHR, therefore, invites authors to come forward with brief reviews of subjects on the move relevant to the journal's scope that include snippets of unpublished data or hypotheses pointing to new research horizons. Timely overviews of new technologies would also be welcome in this review series. Submissions will be peer reviewed with sensitivity towards the objectives of this new-style publication modality. Many of these contributions will be solicited. Others will be submitted in the normal way. If you have a sufficiently mature theme that maps to the mission and scope of MHR, I invite you to contact the editorial office to give notice of your proposal and receive prima facie judgement as to the likelihood of it meeting our requirements. Meanwhile, I am pleased to announce the first two papers in the MHR new research horizons series: the article by Van Blerkom and Davis dealing with mitochondrial involvement in oocyte maturation and fertilization and the review of the gene-trap mutagenesis technique in reproductive research by Lee, Shah and Xu.

Mitochondrial signalling and fertilization, pp. 759–770.

Jonathon Van Blerkom and Patrick Davis

Gene trap mutagenesis: a functional genomics approach towards reproductive research, pp. 771–779.

Terrance Lee, Chirag Shah and Eugene Yujun Xu
