Recent Interesting Articles from TCRN Members

In this monthly article the TCRN Operations & Projects team use on-line tools to identify publications attributed to TCRN members. We are using Scopus, the largest abstract and citation database of peer-reviewed literature as our primary source.

A “Scopus alert” has been created for any TCRN member who has been an author on a peer-reviewed publication. New results arrive weekly from Scopus, allowing us to create a database of all member publications for the year and then share some recent examples with the TCRN members each month.

This month's publications by TCRN members include TCRN PhD Scholarship recipient Jie Bin Lew for her work in cancer modelling. Jie-Bin is a research programmer at the Cancer Council NSW and is also completing her PhD at UNSW under the supervision of A/Prof Karen Canfell. Prof David Goldstein and TCRN founder Prof Robyn Ward also feature is this month's distinguished list of publications.
