Beginning in mid-February 2008,
the 1997-2007 online version of the
Science Watch® newsletter, ESI-Topics.com, and
in-cites.com, will all be featured together on the redesigned ScienceWatch.com. All previous content from the
three sites will be permanently archived, and remain accessible from any existing bookmarks to the
archived pages. No new content will be added to this

This Research Front on GECKO
ADHESIVE SETAE
from the field of Materials Science was selected for mapping from the list of Fast Moving Fronts
for January 2008. The map is a diagrammatic
representation of the 15 core papers comprising the front. Each
circle represents a highly cited paper whose bibliographic
information is displayed when the user clicks on the circle. The
lines between circles represent the strongest co-citation links
for each paper (that is, indicating that the papers are frequently cited
together). Papers close to each other on the map are generally
more highly co-cited. The most recent paper(s)
are indicated in red.
Kellar Autumn talks
about his highly cited paper, "Evidence for van der
Waals adhesion in gecko setae," (PROC NAT ACAD SCI
USA, 99 (19): 12252-12256 SEP 17 2002), which is this month's
emerging research front in Materials Science. This
paper is represented in the map below.
