A new concept of how to output knowledge is to create webtools in association with online manuscripts. For example, webtools that allow for interacting with large genomic datasets that have so much knowledge that cannot fit into a single paper. You can just interact with the data on any device and at any time you want,\u201d said Ryan Driskell, head of WSU\u2019s Fibroblast and Skin Regeneration Laboratory.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A new public database built from the ground up by Washington State University undergraduates looks to expedite scientific understanding of how skin heals.
