Assessing the gap in female authorship in the journal Emergency Radiology: trends over a 20-year period.

Purpose: To examine trends in female authorship in the journal Emergency Radiology from January 1994 to December 2014.

Methods: We obtained institutional review board approval for our study. We retrospectively reviewed a total of 1617 articles published in the journal Emergency Radiology over a 20-year period.

Localization and mobility of synaptic vesicles in Myosin VI mutants of Drosophila.

Background: At the Drosophila neuromuscular junction (NMJ), synaptic vesicles are mobile; however, the mechanisms that regulate vesicle traffic at the nerve terminal are not fully understood. Myosin VI has been shown to be important for proper synaptic physiology and morphology at the NMJ, likely by functioning as a vesicle tether. Here we investigate vesicle dynamics in Myosin VI mutants of Drosophila.
