Re: [ccp4bb] OT: "Who's Afraid of Peer Review?"

Hi scientists, this interesting topic brought back to my mind a similar discussion I had with a colleague of mine and now I want to share it with you guys. As Vale already pointed out, the peer-review process seems to be far from an ideal system: there are many papers in which one of the author i

Re: [ccp4bb] installation in sw or sw64?
