Would you like to author articles at Alzheimer's Club? Then send us your masterpiece, so we can screen it and publish at Alzclub.org. Please note that comments (on articles published previously) can be posted directly and anonymously (but why you would stay not known to the public?)
Do you know that as of May 3, 2005 NIH asks NIH-funded scientists to deposit their articles (published earlier in scientific journals) in PubMedCentral (PMC)? PMC is accessible to all for free and is one form of the academic world movement towards Public Open Access to scholar literature, free from commercial publishers' cabal. New to Open Access? Then you miss important science publishing development, because an NIH provision became a US law at the end of 2007. Read lay language article on Open Access authored by AlzClub founder. NIH-funded authors: visit the NIH Manuscript Submission system for more information.
