Hello All -
It is an honor and a pleasure to be taking over the responsibility
of maintaining this valuable resource. I would like to thank Keith
for his efforts over the past years and I hope I am able to
continue to bring the update to you with the same quality and
high standard he has set.
A quick note as I get started. There are many articles that fall
under multiple keywords, so be sure to check all categories
that may be related to your work as well as the Unique Topic
section. Please feel free to contact me with any suggestions for
how the update might be improved in the future.
One minor transition glitch, there are no doi links this week.
They will return next week
Cheers,
Craig
