Science Comic Strips
Open accessAbstract
Science comic strips entitled Dr. Scifun were planned to promote science jobs and studies among professionals(scientists, graduate and undergraduate students) and children. To this end, the authors collected intriguingscience stories as the basis of scenarios, and drew four-cut comic strips, first on paper and subsequently ascomputer files. Eighty three episodes of the cartoons in English are available on the homepage (anatomy.co.kr).The comics have been displayed in the on-line science magazine and the science museum in Korea. Thereception has been positive. The comic strips help inform graduate students and young scientists of theappropriate philosophy for their devotion to science. As well the comics demonstrate the fascinating andmeaningful activities of scientists to juveniles. It is anticipated that competition between comics created bydifferent scientists will improve the quality of the publications, benefiting readers worldwide.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
