Quanta Magazine
Today's site offers a publication oriented towards encouraging the general
public to become better acquainted with the hard sciences. Gentle Subscribers
will discover accurate coverage of advancements and roadblocks in the
continuing challenges driving the quest for scientific knowledge and
understanding.
"Quanta Magazine is an editorially independent online publication launched ...
to enhance public understanding of science. ... Our reporters focus on
developments in mathematics, theoretical physics, theoretical computer science
and the basic life sciences. The best traditional news organizations provide
excellent reporting on applied areas of science ... We strive to complement and
augment existing media coverage, not compete with it." - from the website
Within its streamlined design, the magazine provides a superior resource to
stay informed of scientific developments. Categories include Physics,
Mathematics, Biology, and Computer Science, with extra sections covering
Education, Genomics, and the impressively styled Mathematical Physics among
others. Recent articles have noted advances in DNA research, new theories on
the Quantum Brain, and strategies for teaching math and science, while an
additional feature serves up a number of short podcasts available directly at
the site.
