Illustrating transitions between conformers using circos plots

A new tutorial  is available for preparing a circos plot illustrating the transitions between stable conformers identified from e.g. a folding molecular dynamics simulation.

Impact Factor: Who are you bullshitting?

Notice the part that reads :

When I was a new postdoc, I learnt a valuable lesson in assessing the scientific caliber of a scientist.  My research advisor was a soft-spoken, astute scientist with an incisive vision. He showed me how he judged the quality and productivity of a faculty candidate from his Curriculum vitae :

1.  Throw out all reviews, he (or she) has listed.

2.  Take away all papers where authorship is beyond the second author (or senior author).

3.  Trash all conferences and posters presented.

4.  Look at how regularly papers have been published and how good they are.  Yes, use your judgement.  A good paper does not need any assistance, you will know when you see it (at least in the area of research close to you).
