My First Impact Factors July 4, 2008

I know it’s a small step for a scientist but an exceptional day for me as I’ve got my first impact factors (2.78!).

TRANSDAB wiki is a database of transglutaminase substrate proteins. This wiki is designed to provide quality content of all the details (including synonyms, structures, references) about transglutaminase substrate proteins and interaction partners. Currently TRANSDAB contains 243 articles about substrate proteins for 6 transglutaminase types in a user-friendly, editable format. Our aim was to collect structural information about substrate proteins and this information is provided in form of images, videos and links. The scientific community is invited to edit the database and besides providing up-to-date information, this wiki should serve as a platform for valuable discussions.

I hope to get some more, next time in the field of genetics. I had another publication about web 2.0 and medicine but this one was published in Hungarian.

Anyway, according to Wikipedia, impact factor is a measure of the citations to science and social science. journals.
