JoVE
Traditional Scientific Article
Position the metaphase spindle at 3 o’clock and hold it with holding pipette. Apply piezo pulses to penetrate the zona pellucida. Touch the metaphase plate with the enucleation pipette. Aspirate the spindle and withdraw the pipette.
What does it say???
How can it be used for research or teaching???
New approach: publish science using video online
Text doesn’t work?
Show it in video!
Create new type of science journal:
video journal

What users say
Dr. Maria Toledo-Rodriguez, University of Nottingham
By having the video protocol ... anybody can quickly learn the technique whenever it is convenient for her/him saving them lots of time, money and frustrations.
Dr. Rich Condit, University of Florida
You can't figure out how to do this stuff just from reading the literature, you have to have somebody show you ... this is amazing!
Lalitha Chandrasekher, PhD student, Georgetown University
