“The Cuban Scientist” (or TCS for short) is a free and open access online journal where scientists from all branches of science and technology can share their research results with the community in the form of two-page reports, summarizing works already published in peer-reviewed journals.
Our mission
TCS’s mission is to establish and strengthen ties among Cuban scientists by contributing to their self-awareness as a community, fostering collaboration and facilitating knowledge-sharing. It aims to serve as a free information layer bypassing geographical and institutional barriers. Our goal is that TCS one day becomes the reference point for ‘science made by Cubans’.
Who can publish?
We interpret ‘Cuban’ in an inclusive way, i.e. comprising all scientists who identify themselves with this community, regardless of their place of birth or where they live.

4 Oct 2026 PDF (533K)“The phylogenetic placement and taxonomic affinities of the fungus Ellisembia coronata, the type species of the genus, were resolved after its recollection on the original host and type locality in Germany. Implications for the systematics of Ellisembia, Sporidesmium and related genera are summarized.”

4 Oct 2026 PDF (321K)“CIMAvax-EGF controls circulating epidermal growth factor (EGF) through a vaccine-induced antibody response, but prolonged administration of mineral-oil adjuvants can cause tissue damage at the injection site and in adjacent areas. We evaluated the humoral immunogenicity and maintenance of anti-EGF antibodies elicited by hydroxyapatite nanoparticle (HANp) systems, showing sustained IgG responses, predominantly IgG1/Th2, and preservation of antibody levels after replacing CIMAvax-EGF maintenance doses with HANp–rhEGF–rP64k.”

27 Sep 2026 PDF (301K)“We revisit the Berezinskii–Kosterlitz–Thouless (BKT) transition from the perspective of magnetic permeability.
By allowing non-neutral vortex configurations in a Coulomb gas model, we uncover multiplicative
logarithmic corrections to scaling governed by a dangerously irrelevant fugacity. The resulting scaling is unexpectedly
simple, yet not commonly emphasized.”

8 Jul 2025 PDF (327K)“A pilot study with eight children (ages 6–8) explored their use of visual probabilistic information in a task
where Lucy lemur plays the roulette. Children estimated happiness of Lucy and chose games based on probabilities, showing consistent choices matching the two modalities and no clear preference for specific probability
values. Results indicate that young children can process complex visual probabilistic information and make
consistent estimates, laying the groundwork for further research on probabilistic reasoning.”
