Errors with Molecular Therapy style

Hey everyone,

While working on a manuscript for Molecular Therapy, I noticed that the Zotero style for this journal has multiple errors. I think most of them arise from the fact that its CSL is derived from the Nature style (MT is a Nature journal). However there are several formatting aspects that are very different from other Nature journals.

1. Currently, citations are superscript in this style. Citations should not be superscript, and they should be encased in brackets ( [1,2] or [1-3] ).

2. The publication date should follow the author list instead of at the end.

3. Currently, if there are more than 6 authors the style only displays the first author followed by et al. If there are more than 6 authors, the first 6 authors should all be displayed, then followed by et al.

4. Currently, the style places a comma after the volume number. This should be a colon.

5. Currently, the last author is separated by a "&". This should be the word "and" instead.

I'm poking around to see if I can figure out how to correct some of these, but I'm not very programming-savvy, so any help would be appreciated.

Thanks guys!
