Not your typical science blog, but an 'open science' research blog. Watch me fumbling my way towards understanding how and why bacteria take up DNA, and getting distracted by other cool questions.
Accepted!
Our #arseniclife manuscript has been officially accepted for publication in Science. We now have to abide by Science's embargo policy, so if you'd like more information you can look at the copy posted on the Arxiv server or contact Science.
Dec 2, 2010: NASA astrobiologists announce discovery of bacteria which incorporate arsenic in their DNA. Dec 9, 2010: Critics raise doubts about NASA's arsenic bacteria June 4, 2012: Dr. Redfield proves there ain't no such thing, at least not yet. Go RRR!
Awesome! Congrats. :)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on completion of a wonderful example of science and open science at that.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!!
ReplyDeleteIs the version of the paper on ArXiv the final accepted version?
ReplyDeleteWohoo!
ReplyDeleteLet's hope they'll "upgrade" it to Science Express, so it will be out on the net earlier!

Congratulations and many thanks for your time. Now I have an example of falsability in science.
