The August 2017, Vol. 158, Issue 2 of Toxicological Sciences includes a wide range of articles on topics certain to be of great interest and importance to you. In this issue, ToxSci Editor-in-Chief (EIC) Gary W. Miller also reiterates the commitment of the journal to presenting research outcomes that are rigorous, transparent, and reproducible.
"Reproducibility. Transparency. Rigor. These words are being used more often in scientific and popular circles. As scientists we strive to conduct rigorous research. We expect that our experiments are reproducible, but are we doing enough? As a field, toxicology needs to continue to make our research as useful as possible. This means producing rigorous and reproducible results. We must also be transparent and helpful as we describe our methods. Authors must ask themselves if they are providing sufficient detail for others to replicate their results. At Toxicological Sciences, we remain committed to these ideals. We are in the process of expanding our guidelines and instructions to assure that when you Look Inside ToxSci that you are seeing the most rigorous and reproducible research in the field of toxicology."
Also as you Look Inside ToxSci, you will find four Editor's Highlights prepared by ToxSci Associate Editors and EIC Dr. Miller as follows: Nathan J. Cherrington on Farnesoid X and Carbon Tetrachloride, Dr. Miller on Bisphenol A Replacements, Brian S. Cummings on Antidepressants and Mitochondrial Bioenergenetics, and Jeffrey M. Peters on Pyrethroids, Constitutive Androstane Receptor, and Tumors.
The mission of ToxSci, the official journal of the Society of Toxicology, is to publish the most influential research in the field of toxicology.
