This blog is not about actual elephants. Sorry. It is about science. This blog is about those problems in science that everyone sees, but nobody talks about: The journal system, the idiocy of authorship, citation cartels, and career chances for young or female researchers. You name it. Looked at in this way, this blog is about elephants, after all. Elephants in the lab. One by one, we try to spot these elephants and write about them, and as we go along, you are invited to participate in this great science safari. And: Every post on this blog is actually citable! We make this possible by giving each entry a separate DOI.
