Do we know what research happens at universities?

Now we can find out with ease thanks to Futurity.org. HT

Futurity began in March 2009 as the answer to a challenging question: How will the public learn about important breakthroughs at leading research universities as traditional news outlets continue to shrink?

The answer is simple.

Learn about them directly through an online news magazine that reports on discoveries in science, health, technology, business, society, and the arts. Expand the Web site’s reach through social media sites like YouTube, Twitter, and Facebook.

Now you're talking! Am happy that my phd school is a member there :-)
