Nature Network Blogs

I wasn't aware until recently that the journal Nature had gone all internetty with the online Nature Network. There are a number of blogs, of course, including a number by women in the sciences. This seems like a pretty new venture (most of the blogs have fewer than ten posts), so I thought it would be nice to highlight a few of them:
  • Courtney Sill blogs about the final months of being a grad student at BU in The Home Stretch.
  • Anna Kushnir's Lab Life is about her personal experiences in the lab as a PhD student at Harvard Medical School.
  • Corie Lok is the editor of Nature Network's Boston branch, and her blog covers science from the Bostonian point of view.
  • Deanne Taylor blogs primarily about the biosciences and technology.
  • Jacqueline Floyd has two blogs: Element List covers science news and web sites and Seismogenesis (so new that there is only one post) discusses earthquakes and faulting.
  • Shelly Praveen's blog has only one post, but the topic - use of transgenic technology in agriculture - is an interesting one, so I'm going to be watching it.
There are a number of other blogs listed that have no posts as yet, and it will be interesting to see how this project goes.
