Can someone change the title to:

"Comment on Nature paper on 2015 mRNA paper suggests data re-used in different contexts"

The current title would suggest music to most lay-people.




Even for people familiar with the field this title is a bit hard to parse at first without context. "bands" really needs either gels or gel electrophoresis as context.


Agreed


Disagreed. Title is fine.


As someone clueless about music and mRNA I've got to say this wouldn't help me much.


“We are no longer called Sonic Death Monkey. We are on the verge of being called Kathleen Turner Overdrive, however this evening we will be Barry Jive, and the Uptown Five.”


Ok, we've changed it. Submitted title was "Same three bands appear in three different presentations with different labels".

picture (the submitter) had the right idea—it's often better to take a subtitle or a representative sentence from the article when an original title isn't suitable for whatever reason, but since in this case it's ambiguous, we can change it.

If there's a better phrase from the article itself, we can change it again.


>> "Same three bands appear in three different presentations with different labels"

This has the makings of a Highlander episode. Three groups of immortals forming bands in different generations.


Thanks :)
