Journal of the Association for Laboratory Automation (JALA)
JALA publishes six peer-reviewed issues each year, and accepts manuscripts on an ongoing basis from ALA members and nonmembers. Lab automation professionals are invited to showcase their achievements by submitting method-focused scientific papers for publication consideration. Manuscript guidelines and submission information is available at http://labautomation.org/jalainstructions.php.
Correction
In the June 2006 issue of the Journal of the Association for Laboratory Automation, the article by Krishnamoorthy, Bedekar, Feng, et al. is entitled, “Need for Simulation-Based Design Analysis and Optimization” (2006;11:118–127). The article title was misprinted. The correct title is “Simulation-Based Analysis of Fluid Flow and Electrokinetic Phenomena in Microfluidic Devices.”
