As promised, we are here with our special year-end edition. We've gone back to look at all the stories we published this year to find the ones that generated highest viewership for our website. We sincerely hope that you've enjoyed reading these stories and will have fun revisiting them. It will be great if you can share them with your colleagues and friends in the life-sciences community.

Going ahead in 2018, we will continue to bring more engaging content for you. So, stay with us and do get in touch if you have something to share. 

We hope each one of you will have an exciting, science-filled and fun 2018. Happy new year, dear readers!
