Facebook for Scientists

Posted November 06, 2009 8:03 AM by Sharkles

Been in touch with your BFF's lately? The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA) is here to help. Funds from the stimulus act are being used to plan a new social networking site for scientists. The system will be implemented at seven schools which will link researchers across the world, improving ongoing studies, forging collaborations, and leading to new discoveries. Are scientists ready for social networking sites similar to Facebook?

The preceding article is a "sneak peek" from Lab Equipment, a newsletter from GlobalSpec. To stay up-to-date and informed on industry trends, products, and technologies, subscribe to Lab Equipment today.
