Announcements

University Web site is redesigned. Communications and Public Affairs and Information Technology have launched phase one of the university’s new Web site design, including the new home page as well as the Scientists & Research, Newswire and About sections. The design overhaul will continue through the spring, with rollouts of the Graduate School, Hospital, Featured Events, Departments and Resource Centers sections. The new site design is specifically geared toward external audiences, including the general public, the media, fellow scientific institutions, donors and prospective donors/students/faculty/staff. Inside Rockefeller, the university’s intranet originally launched in fall 2008, will soon take over as the primary site for all internal department news, announcements and applications within the Rockefeller network. For more information or to provide feedback on the new site or Inside Rockefeller, please contact Alyssa Gelbard at x7080 or gelbara@rockefeller.edu.

To the dogs. As a result of recent neglect, administration officials wish to remind all Rockefeller dog owners to clean up after their pets while on campus, to help keep the grounds clean and walkable.

Bring your child to work. In celebration of national “Take Your Child to Work Day,” Human Resources is hosting activities from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Thursday, April 22. Children between the ages of 8 and 12 who are accompanied by an adult are welcome. The registration deadline is Friday, April 9. For information or to register, contact HR at x8300 or hr@rockefeller.edu.

Take a number. Scientists can find their PubMedCentral ID (PMCID) numbers quickly and easily on the university’s Faculty Publications Web site. Markus Library personnel now update the list weekly with newly assigned numbers. Go to https://appext.rockefeller. edu/facpub/do/search, search for and find a particular paper and the PMCID number will appear in the title field.
