Journal of Visualized Experiments: JoVE 1000

SOMMERVILLE, MA, March 10, 2011 (Press-News.org) View the article here: http://www.jove.com/Details.php?ID=2651

Since its inception in 2006, the Journal of Visualized Experiments (JoVE) has forever changed the way the world's brightest scientific minds can share information. A picture is worth a thousand words, and a video infinitely more. This concept put JoVE at the forefront of a new and vital way of disseminating scientific techniques and methodologies in order to accelerate scientific progress and increase productivity of research, particularly in the biological and medical sciences.

The tacit dimension is now available to researchers, graduate students, postdocs, and undergraduates worldwide via high-quality videos recorded in top academic laboratories. Publishing authors come from Harvard, MIT, Yale, Stanford, Oxford, Cambridge and other world leading universities, on topics ranging from embryonic stem cells to human brain-machine interfaces and isolating silk producing glands from venomous spiders. Here are what some of our most celebrated scientists have said about JoVE;

"JoVE is such a unique publication. There has never been a journal that can capture science being done. That's immeasurably helpful. I've found it indispensable both as a way to disseminate techniques and educate collaborators and as a resource to learn new techniques." (Hazel Sive, Professor of Biology, Whitehead Institute)

"People in my lab routinely use JoVE and find it very useful. It is a great way to reduce the ramp-up time for introducing new techniques to the lab." (David Scadden, Co-Chair, Department of Stem Cell and Regenerative Biology, Harvard University)

We are proud to announce the publication of our 1000th article on Tuesday, March 8, 2011. It is a landmark achievement for this breakthrough approach that clearly demonstrates its acceptance into the worldwide scientific community. JoVE's CEO and co-founder Moshe Pritsker says: "The publication of the 1000th article provides a strong validation for the unique video-based approach to scientific publishing introduced by JoVE. It is obvious that our innovative concept was accepted by academic scientists who see JoVE as new venue to increase efficiency of knowledge transfer and increase productivity of research and education".

Not only is JoVE the new way to publish science, but continues to grow exponentially each month. Bringing the global scientific community closer together - one video article at a time.

JoVE was founded in October 2006 as the first journal devoted to video publication of biological research. This new method of publishing has a significantly higher capacity for visualization than traditional print medium - consequently increasing reproducibility of published studies. JoVE has so far released 40 monthly issues that include over 650 video-protocols on experimental approaches in developmental biology, neuroscience, microbiology and other fields. To facilitate integration of video into scientific publishing, JoVE has developed an organizational and technical structure to perform and/or assist scientists with filming and editing in their labs.
