I may have uncovered another<\/a> conspiracy. This time it’s to publish papers related to my postdoctoral research without citing me.
\nI like<\/a> being cited, and when a few likely looking candidates came up in this week’s Pubcrawler<\/a> alert I thought I was on to something.<\/p>\n


\nSurely this review<\/a> would reference my favourite paper<\/a> or one of its siblings? {1}
\nWhy didn’t this one<\/a> cite this one<\/a> ?
\nAt a push, this new paper<\/a> might even have cited this one<\/a> .
\nBut no.
\nMaybe I should actually read these new papers properly, rather than just skimming. There are quite probably some excellent reasons why my papers didn’t fit in.
\nThen again, papers have a finite citation lifespan, and in the fast-moving field of molecular biology, mine might be nearing the end of theirs.
\nMaybe I should just go and write some new ones {2}.
