Annotated Bibliography in "Journal of Neuroscience" Style

This annotated bibliography includes all of the sources I used for my research and blog posts, excluding pictures which were already cited. It includes entirely websites, and is cited in its own style based off of "The Journal of Neuroscience". The style was found through this website which also contains examples of the citation style.

Borrud G., (7/31/15) Mouse Mind Control for a Good Cause. Available at: http://www.dw.com/en/mouse-mind-control-for-a-good-cause/a-18619622 [09/5/15]
I used this source as a general article for my research on my Neuroscience controversy. It mainly mentions the controversy of whether it is a good or bad thing to be able to control one's mind. This will be a key article to the actual debate in my controversy.

Akst J., (05/04/15) Mouse Mind Control. Available at: http://www.the-scientist.com/?articles.view/articleNo/42878/title/Mouse-Mind-Control/ [09/05/15]
I used this source as a general article as well. It related to my neuroscience controversy in its very detailed and factual description of the research and controversy at hand. I will use this for information as well as a view on the controversy.

Brownlee C. (4/9/05) Remote Control Minds. Available at: http://www.jstor.org.ezproxy1.library.arizona.edu/stable/4016290?Search=yes&resultItemClick=true&searchText=mind&searchText=control&searchUri=%2Faction%2FdoBasicSearch%3FQuery%3Dmind%2Bcontrol%26amp%3Bprq%3Dmice%2Bethics%26amp%3Bgroup%3Dnone%26amp%3Bfc%3Doff%26amp%3Bwc%3Don%26amp%3Bso%3Drel%26amp%3Bhp%3D25%26amp%3Bacc%3Don&seq=2#page_scan_tab_contents [09/05/15]
I used this source as an academic article for my Neuroscience controversy. It didn't completely relate, but mentioned mind control done on fruitflies and the controversy of that, which is similar to mice. I imagine that, in the future, I will use this source as more solid information on the research itself.

Febo M. (7/30/15) A new day for an old emotion... Available at: http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/ejn.13014/full [09/05/15]
I used this source for an academic article also. This one was less related than my first article used, but its main purpose was to mention a study done on mice that inflicted pain and fear on the animals. I felt it was related due to its poor treatment on animals, which is an ethical controversy related to mine. I will use this as part of the ethical controversy within my actual controversy.

Author Unknown (Al Jazeera News). (12/09/14) Animals on trial. Available at: http://stream.aljazeera.com/story/201412091504-0024416 [09/05/15]
This source was used by me as one of my less academic, social media sources from Storify. The source outside of Storify was an Al Jazeera News article about the ethic and moral problems with research done on animals. Again, this article can be used as part of the ethical controversy within my controversy.

Author Unknown (Jour2722). (07/31/13) Animal Mind Control: The Future is Now! Available at: https://storify.com/H_Bain/humanity-pushes-one-step-further-to-animal-dominat [09/05/15]
This was yet another social media source found on Storify. The original article comes from a personal (and possibly academic) blog from user Jour2722, and it explains a study done similar to the one in my controversy, mind control on animals. It had a very uniquely positive view on the topic, which contrasts my other social media source, so I could use this source as a different perspective.

Scott G. (04/15/13) Mind Control is Becoming Reality. Available at: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/gini-graham-scott/mind-controlled-devices_b_3062689.html [09/12/15]
This source was found through searching the Huffington Post for "mind control". The article itself pertains to my topic in its information insight to its readers on what is going on in the field of neuroscience and mind control. The article, while mostly neutral, takes a few small stances on the topic, which I will probably use from this article, along with the context it gives on other mind control projects.

Cook G. (01/08/15) Sebastian Seung's Quest to Map the Human Brain. Available at: http://www.nytimes.com/2015/01/11/magazine/sebastian-seungs-quest-to-map-the-human-brain.html?_r=0 [09/12/15]
This source from New York Times was also found simply through searching "Neuroscience Mind Control". While the article is more broad and doesn't specifically relate to my controversy, it does give key insight into Sebastian Seung, who is one of the key people in my controversy. I will probably use this source as information about people in my controversy.

Begich N. (06/20/11) Excellent Mind Control Documentary. Available at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o1_XUdQo2AU [09/12/15]
This source is a video that exhibits information on the the topic of mind control. However, the video itself is old, and does not give too much insight into my specific controversy. What I am mostly interested in using this source for is the comments section, as many people have very heated discussions on my controversy there.

Bittel J. (6/26/13) Controlling the Minds of Cockroaches Using Microsoft's Xbox Kinect. Available at: http://www.slate.com/blogs/future_tense/2013/06/26/cockroaches_controlled_using_microsoft_s_xbox_kinect_video.html [09/12/15]
The article at hand was found on Slate, through searching "Mind Control". Essentially, this article explains a similar "research" to the one in my controversy that was done using cockroaches and the Xbox Kinect. I find that this article will be useful in its relaxed, colloquial style, giving an insight of how the average person might feel about the topic.

Reflection: I looked over the annotated bibliographies of both Katherine and Rachel. While neither of them were completely the same as my style, Journal of Neuroscience is not a common citation style, so I had to do what I could. Katherine's style is IEEE style, which is not very similar to mine, and Rachel's is CSE which is a scientific style, the closest to mine that I could find. It was interesting to see the differences between these styles and my own. I noticed that they took some creative liberties in their citations, which I don't believe I did. I think I am better off not risking making changes too drastic, but they made their changes effectively.

  1. Although you did not provide a link to a style guide, I looked it up online and found that the citation style varies depending on the person. Additionally, although your responses to your sources explain clearly what the source was about, you didn't mention how your source was useful and how you will use it in the future.
