Vote for “Method of the Year”

Last year, the editors of Nature Methods chose a “Method of the Year” (MOY) and the winner was next generation sequencing. This feature included an editorial, commentaries, news features and other types of content discussing the winning technique.

This year, the editors want input from the scientific community. Go here to see the nominees and cast your vote. Interestingly, you can vote positively or negatively for a technique as well as leave comments in discussion forums. Although the ultimate choice will still remain an editorial decision, at least the editors will get feedback from the community.

This is some great use of Web2.0 to get the community engaged and I hope that you will participate.

    Are there any awards like this for using neuroplasticity for large scale health interventions?

    I have been following Emotional Brain Traning for a while.

    They seem to be pretty exciting in turning some of these ideas into large scale impacts on society.
