【SCI寫作】1-cover letter

1、 什么是cover letter？指的是投稿信2、cover letter的內(nèi)容主要包括那些？應(yīng)該簡述所投稿件的核心內(nèi)容、主要發(fā)現(xiàn)和意義，擬投期刊，對稿件處理有無特殊要求等（如“not to review” list）。另外，請附上主要作者的中文姓名、通訊地址、電話、傳真和e-mail地址。此外有的雜志要求推薦幾位審稿人及其聯(lián)系方式。以及誰已經(jīng)閱讀過該文（當(dāng)然是牛人）。我投的那個雜志是要求說明你論文研究的意義，以及與這個雜志的相關(guān)性，另外還有的可能要寫明你沒有一搞多投等。此外臨床實驗要求寫明符合倫理學(xué)要求。3、 如何寫cover letter？各個雜志的具體要求是不一樣的，在雜志的guide for authors一般會有要求。如果沒有具體的要求，大家可按照通用要求處理。4、常用模板：（1）Cover letterDear Mr. *1.

GDNF has long been thought to be a potent neurotrophic factor for the survival of midbrain dopaminergic neurons, which are degenerated in Parkinsons disease. In this paper, we report an unexpected, acute effect of GDNF on A-type potassium channels, leading to a potentiation of neuronal excitability, in the dopaminergic neurons in culture as well as in adult brain slices. Further, we show that GDNF regulates the K+ channels through a mechanism that involves activation of MAP kinase. Thus, this study has revealed, for the first time, an acute modulation of ion channels by GDNF. Our findings challenge the classic view of GDNF as a long-term survival factor for midbrain dopaminergic neurons, and suggest that the normal function of GDNF is to regulate neuronal excitability, and consequently dopamine release. These results may also have implications in the treatment of Parkinsons disease. Due to a direct competition and conflict of interest, we request that Drs. XXX of Harvard Univ., and YY of Yale Univ. not be considered as reviewers.

L. Tanaka, Yasushi Watarai, and Takahiro Kanda.Copy of the Abstract:In this study, energy spectrum of the large-scale atmospheric motions is examined in the framework of the 3D normal mode decomposition. The horizontal scale of disturbance is measured by the phase speed of a Rossby mode c. According to the analysis result for the barotropic component of the atmosphere, we obtain a characteristic energy spectrum with distinct slopes for the turbulence and wave regimes separated by the spherical Rhines speed. In order to explain the observational finding that the energy spectrum is proportional to c2, we put forward a hypothesis based on the criterion of Rossby wave breaking such that the local meridional gradient of potential vorticity becomes negative, dq/dy < 0, somewhere in the domain. With a constant m describing a total mass of the atmosphere for unit area, we have shown that the barotropic energy spectrum of the general circulation E can be represented as E=mc2.Corresponding Author:Dr. Hiroshi L.
