Another problem may be about the credit. Our current system about credit attribution seems to rely on the publication reviewing system of journals.

I think that e-books edited by wellknown publishers as springer verlag is the way in the future, despite the fact that i personally prefer printed books. But I know I have to adapt to what we can`t avoid.

I prefer books and not e-books

Marc-Oliver Gewaltig replied to Ann Avouris's discussion 'Nature editorial: Back to books?'
I think you should ask the question differently: With all the easy electronic means of publication, do I still need to worry about how to sell my book to a publisher? Today, anybody can publish his or her book. The internet is full of self-published…

fMRI is not a conclusive test, it is a scan that shall be one of the aiding factors in the final conclusion.

Robert Rider replied to Ann Avouris's discussion 'Are we overestimating the reliability of fMRI?'
Loved the dead fish approach. Is it naive to ask why this hasn't already been addressed at the peer-review level? This is a serious problem that's been around since fMRI first started to take off as the Maslow's hammer of neuroscience.

I think that Dr. Dahene`s these in a way is an important paradox, which can open up for futher insight into the evoution of the brain and in this connection the problems of brain, learning and culture
