MicropublicationA new way of publishing citable data
• Submit expression data for a single gene• Peer reviewed• Published on WormBase • Discoverable with other gene expression data• A DOI will be assigned• Usable as part of metrics –grants, CV
What sometimes happens
You have a new GFP reporter line
Interesting results but……not enough for a stand alone publication
Wragg et al. 2007
Shelved!
Not good
Not good for many reasons!
All publicly funded research should be made available to
the community
Sooner or later somebody else will
publish it
What you can do nowYou have a new GFP reporter line
You go to WormBaseand (micro)publish it
How can you do that?
