- Phys.org reported on research recently published in an article in Nature Chemical Biology on work by a collaborative team of scientists from MSKCC, the Broad Institute, Brigham and Women’s Hospital, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, and Massachusetts General Hospital, that outlines how they built a new cell culture model that mimics AML in its niche in the bone marrow and makes the search for promising new drugs more effective.
- PMLive reported that the non-profit Tri-Institutional Therapeutics Discovery Institute (Tri-I TDI) will bring together scientists from MSKCC, Rockefeller University and Weill Cornell Medical College and will focus on basic research and early-stage drug discovery up to the ‘proof-of-concept’ stage.
- The Wall Street Journal announced that MSKCC has placed Gelclair(R) on its formulary as the exclusive therapeutic to treat oral mucositis (OM).
Cited Reference Searching in PubMed
The PubMed database offers a limited version of cited reference searching. PubMed records which are cited by articles in the PubMed Central database, can be found on the abstract page for a record. You can look for them on the right-hand side of the page, below the “Related citations in PubMed” section. The cited references link to the PubMed records, which in turn link to the full text articles since PubMed Central is an open access database.
Here is an example:
GNAS-activating mutations define a rare subgroup of inflammatory liver tumors characterized by STAT3 activation.

Resource Highlights: Citing a Tweet
As Twitter grows in popularity, more and more researchers and scientists are using the social network to communicate and discuss their research. This rise has created a demand for official formats to cite Tweets in scholarly papers. Tweet2Cite generates a citation from the URL of a tweet in either MLA (Modern Language Association) or APA (American Psychological Association) formats.
Just paste the URL of a tweet into the box provided and watch as your citation is spit back in the appropriate style to be used in your paper. Hopefully there will be more resources like Tweet2Cite to come that supply citations in formats other than MLA and APA.
Don’t forget to follow the MSK Library Twitter stream @MSKCC_Library to keep abreast of cancer research news, training workshops, Center news, useful updates for keeping current, and to tweet with us about your scholarly work!
