Hello all, I have an idea for science lovers on steemit to learn some new things and discuss what's new in science.
In my lab every week we meet for journal club. In journal club, everyone is required to bring one paper, article, or news and views piece they read that week. Then we all read each other's articles and discuss them.
I think we could do a similar thing on steemit with a weekly thread to share articles we have read that week that interested us.
If people are interested in doing this, we can start right now in this thread here! Usually what I do is hand everyone a copy of the article and give a short description of why it interested me, so following that format:
http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0278584615000603
This paper was published last year but I found it this week and I was intrigued, but also wary, mostly because of things we know about MDMA. MDMA agonizes 5-HT1 and 5-HT2 receptors, and recent studies have shown that long term use of agonists of these receptors can cause heart valve disease. Also there is always the risk of lowering the seizure threshold, getting serotonin sickness, or "suicide Tuesdays," an extreme depression following the use of MDMA. Despite this, the FDA recently designated MDMA a "breakthrough therapy" for PTSD. Thoughts?
Post journal articles you've read in the past week that you found interesting and share why!
how does this have 65 cents
Get on my level, better start posting science stuff if you want to win
sad
If you check my blog, I usually discuss articles I read all over the week. But I insist, the audience is mostly constituted of non scientists. So that the posts must be appropriate

STOPCool idea. Similiarly, I do a weekly 'what I learnt this week', where I write about something published that I read each day of the week. It would be cool if more people did that, or just share anything in general that they learnt in day to day life.
