New section launch: Ribonucleoprotein Networks

Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences is pleased to announce the launch of its newest section, Ribonucleoprotein Networks. The section, which focuses on the physico-chemical determinants of protein-RNA interactions and functional characterization of ribonucleoprotein networks, is headed by Specialty Chief Editor Prof Gian Gaetano Tartaglia of Catalan Institution for Research and Advanced Studies and Centre for Genomic Regulation, Barcelona, and its Associate Editor board currently comprises the following researchers: Sandro Ataide – University of Sydney, Australia Germano Cecere – Institut Pasteur, France Andrea Cerase – EMBL, Italy Leonid Gitlin – University of California, San Francisco, USA Eleonora Leucci – VIB-KU Leuven, Belgium Francesco Nicassio – Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia, Italy Ulf Andersson Ørom – Max Planck Institute for Molecular Genetics Berlin, Germany Alessandro Quattrone – University of Trento, Italy Nicolas Toro – Estación Experimental del Zaidín, Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas, Spain Michele Trabucchi – Inserm, France Mission Statement From the beginning of transcription through splicing and translation, messenger RNA is associated with a large number of proteins that regulate its processing, stability and transport. In addition to messenger RNA, it has been reported that a major portion of eukaryotic genomes is occupied by DNA sequences whose transcripts do not code for proteins. This part […]

Communicate with your peers with Loop private messaging

You’ve been asking for it and now it’s available. You can now communicate with your fellow researchers on Loop using private messaging. The Loop team is dedicated to developing products and services that facilitate effective communication between you and your peers. Our new instant messaging service provides a platform for new collaboration opportunities, beyond the boundaries of your institution or location, thereby enabling faster academic communication and discovery. You can now quickly and easily exchange direct messages in a single thread. We know everyone likes to use private messaging differently, so we’ve provided a variety of settings that let you choose how you would like to be contacted. A private message can be initiated from the profile of the researcher you’d like to connect with: This is just the beginning. We have full range of new collaboration tools that we’ll be releasing onto the Loop platform in the coming months. Log in to try it out and get talking!

‘New Frontiers in Climate Change Adaptation & Mitigation’ launched

by Nina Rothe The Frontiers Research Topic on “The Pathway to Solutions: New Frontiers in Climate Change Adaptation & Mitigation” has just launched. The 2015 Paris Climate Conference (#COP21), is poised to lead a shift in focus in climate change research from an emphasis on the scientific test of the role of human activity, already consolidated into strong evidence, to a focus on solutions to prepare society to adapt and mitigate the consequences of a warming planet, where knowledge is urgently needed. Frontiers will support this shift by collecting the latest research on climate adaptation and mitigation across multiple scientific disciplines to be published in a unique Research Topic. Business leaders are putting increasing pressure on governments to act and to achieve a legally binding and universal agreement on climate. As the biggest side event at COP21, France, in partnership with United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and the European Commission’s Climate Action network, are hosting the Sustainable Innovation Forum (SIF15), convening cross-sector participants from business, government, finance, UN, NGO and civil society to bolster innovation and further accelerate international sustainable development. To provide policy makers, industry, and business leaders with the latest scientific findings, we are calling for submissions covering all […]
