Abstract
Jennifer Waters (Nikon Imaging Center, Harvard Medical School, MA, USA) spoke to Ebony Torrington (Future Science Group, London, UK) about her career in microscopy and the importance of education. Jennifer is the Director of the Nikon Imaging Center (NIC) at Harvard Medical School and a Chan Zuckerberg Initiative (CZI) Imaging Scientist. She was trained in cell biology and microscopy by Ted Salmon at University of North Carolina (UNC) at Chapel Hill (NC, USA), where her research focused on mitosis and cell cycle regulation. Jennifer's main focus today, in addition to running the NIC, is developing light microscopy educational resources.
Jennifer Waters(美国马萨诸塞州哈佛医学院尼康成像中心)向Ebony Torrington(英国伦敦未来科学集团)讲述了她在显微镜方面的职业生涯和教育的重要性。詹妮弗是哈佛医学院尼康成像中心(NIC)的主任,也是陈-扎克伯格倡议(CZI)的成像科学家。她在美国北卡罗来纳大学教堂山分校接受了Ted Salmon的细胞生物学和显微镜培训,她的研究重点是有丝分裂和细胞周期调节。Jennifer今天的主要工作,除了经营NIC外,还开发光学显微镜教育资源。
期刊介绍:
BioTechniques is a peer-reviewed, open-access journal dedicated to publishing original laboratory methods, related technical and software tools, and methods-oriented review articles that are of broad interest to professional life scientists, as well as to scientists from other disciplines (e.g., chemistry, physics, computer science, plant and agricultural science and climate science) interested in life science applications for their technologies.
Since 1983, BioTechniques has been a leading peer-reviewed journal for methods-related research. The journal considers:
Reports describing innovative new methods, platforms and software, substantive modifications to existing methods, or innovative applications of existing methods, techniques & tools to new models or scientific questions
Descriptions of technical tools that facilitate the design or performance of experiments or data analysis, such as software and simple laboratory devices
Surveys of technical approaches related to broad fields of research
Reviews discussing advancements in techniques and methods related to broad fields of research
Letters to the Editor and Expert Opinions highlighting interesting observations or cautionary tales concerning experimental design, methodology or analysis.
