    ..Searching online is more efficient and following hyperlinks quickly puts researchers in touch with prevailing opinion, but this may accelerate consensus and narrow the range of findings and ideas built upon...

    Science 323:1025. 2009
    ..This effect reverses for poor countries where free-access articles are much more likely to be cited. Together, findings suggest that free Internet access widens the circle of those who read and make use of scientists' investigations...

    PLoS Comput Biol 7:e1002132. 2011
    ..This would enable subsequent improvement of the model through Bayesian probabilistic update. Practically, we propose that model assumptions and hunches be harvested systematically and made available for modelers and scientists...

    Andrey Rzhetsky
    Department of Medicine, University of Chicago, Chicago, Illinois, United States of America
    PLoS Comput Biol 7:e1002191. 2011
    ..We show how these views align with classical divides in science and suggest how a synthesis of their concerns could strengthen the next generation of biomedical ontologies...
