Tissue and Cell is devoted to original research on the organization of cells, subcellular and extracellular components at all levels, including the grouping and interrelations of cells in tissues and organs. The journal encourages submission of ultrastructural studies that provide novel insights into structure, function and physiology of cells and tissues, in health and disease. Bioengineering and stem cells studies focused on the description of morphological and/or histological data are also welcomed. Studies investigating the effect of compounds and/or substances on structure of cells and tissues are generally outside the scope of this journal. For consideration, studies should contain a clear rationale on the use of (a) given substance(s), have a compelling morphological and structural focus and present novel incremental findings from previous literature.

    The Rewards of Platform Unity: Moving to One Repository at Universidad De La Salle Delivers Benefits

    Case Study The rewards of platform unity: moving to one repository at Universidad de La Salle delivers benefits To better support the mission that drives Colombia’s Universidad de La Salle — to generate knowledge that will transform Colombian society by contributing to equity, the defense of life and human development — the university recognized the need to combine three separate digital platforms into a single unifying online presence while simultaneously addressing a long list of technical challenges. After considering several options, it identified Digital Commons as the perfect fit for its needs. This case study charts the university’s decision-making process, the rewards it has subsequently reaped and eight tips for other institutions embarking on a digital repository journey. Introduction Founded in 1964, Universidad de La Salle1 is a private Catholic the other its digital educative resources. So, a cross-department institution with around 14,000 students and 700 postgraduates task force set out to find a single solution that would provide enrolled in a wide array of courses and degree programs. It them with key items on their wish list: is rated a “High Quality University” by Colombia’s National Accreditation Council2 (CNA). Back in 2018, the institution’s five • One entry point to the university’s intellectual output journals were stored on Public Knowledge Project’s Open Journal • Support for the full journal-publishing cycle Systems (OJS) platform. Initially, OJS ticked many boxes for the (including peer review) journals team, as Editorial Head Alfredo Morales recalls: “We • Robust customer support were able to consolidate all our titles, standardize publishing criteria and increase visibility inside and outside the university.” • Effective SEO and indexing of journal articles in Google Scholar • Standardization of metadata But the team also encountered issues that impacted their productivity and content discoverability.

Currently, this process depends heavily on experienced attorneys or patent agents, and few tools are avail‑ able. IntelliPatent was created to accelerate this process. Users can simply upload a series of analogs of interest, and IntelliPatent will automatically extract the general structural scafold and generate the patent claim text. The program can also extend the patent claim by adding commonly seen R groups from historical lists of the top 30 selling drugs in the US for all R substituents. The program takes MDL SD fle formats as inputs, and the invariable core structure and variable substructures will be identifed as the initial scafold and R groups in the output Markush structure. The results can be downloaded in MS Word format (.docx). The suggested claims can be quickly generated with IntelliPatent. This web‑based tool is freely accessible at https ://intel lipat ent.cmdm.tw/.

  • Request for Comments on Proposed Amendments to Patent

    Request for Comments on Proposed Amendments to Patent

    INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY - ISRAEL AUTHOR Request for comments on proposed David Gilat amendments to Patent Law 26 April 2021 | Contributed by Reinhold Cohn Group Easing of regulatory burden Examination of biological molecules Patentable subject matter Biological material samples Destruction of infringing products Reliance on foreign patent office decisions Other issues Outstanding issues The Ministry of Justice and the Patent Office recently published a request for comments on purported expansive amendments to the Patent Law. Some of the proposed amendments are minor, while others represent radical changes to the existing legislation. Many of the proposed amendments, if carried through, may benefit foreign applicants, which are the source of most patent applications in Israel. The deadline for filing comments was 7 April 2021. It remains to be seen how the process will develop. This article discusses the proposed amendments and the effect that they may have on the Israeli patent system. Easing of regulatory burden The proposed amendments follow a 2014 government resolution which provides that all government offices should reduce their regulatory burden. Accordingly, many of the proposed amendments clearly relate to reducing the regulatory burden which results from filing patent applications. For example, the request for comments asked applicants about the removal of the Patent Office requirement that parties must disclose any publications cited by any patent offices in other countries. The request for comments also asked applicants about the introduction of a grace period, which would give parties one year following the first publication of their invention to file a patent application. Without a grace period, an inventor's patent rights can be undermined where, for example, they discuss their new research at a conference.

The Chemical Technology field at IPOPHL covers a wide array of chemical-related subject-matters which in turn has resulted in handling concerns to the examiners assigned to perform substantive examination on such diverse technologies. Japan Patent Office (JPO) has provided comprehensive guidelines addressing various patentability issues, especially that of patent eligibility and industrial applicability of subject matters in the chemical field. By introducing conceptual aspects of the Japanese patent system as a model, this study allowed the investigation of the similarities and differences in JPO’s and IPOPHL’s examination procedure and assessment of patentability requirements, with focus on patent eligibility and industrial applicability of chemical technology inventions.

    Information for Authors

    Information for Authors The Lancet is an international general medical journal that will consider any original contribution that advances or illuminates medical science or practice, or that educates or entertains the journal’s readers. Whatever you have written, remember that it is the general reader whom you are trying to reach. One way to find out if you have succeeded is to show your draft to colleagues in other specialties. If they do not understand, neither, very probably, will The Lancet’s staff or readers. Manuscripts must be solely the work of the author(s) stated, must not have been previously published elsewhere, and must not be under consideration by another journal. For randomised controlled trials or research papers judged to warrant fast dissemination, The Lancet will publish a peer-reviewed manuscript within 4 weeks of receipt (see Swift+ and Fast-track publication). If you wish to discuss your proposed fast-track submission with an editor, please call one of the editorial offices in London (+44 [0] 20 7424 4950), New York (+1 212 633 3667), or Beijing (+86 10 852 08872).
