°ÄÃÅÕý°æ´óÈ«Ãâ·Ñ×ÊÁÏ

is an international online forum for scientists working in the molecular and cellular life sciences. It is used to share information, news and insights, as well as to connect and collaborate – with the ultimate goal of helping to advance progress in these research areas. The °ÄÃÅÕý°æ´óÈ«Ãâ·Ñ×ÊÁÏ Network is open to all but allows users to create a profile page, post relevant content, sign up for alerts, and engage with posts and other users.

The °ÄÃÅÕý°æ´óÈ«Ãâ·Ñ×ÊÁÏ Network currently presents most content from its invited experts and contributors in four themed ‘channels’: Research, Early-Career Scientist, Viewpoints and Educator. In addition, a few ‘rooms’ host content for specific °ÄÃÅÕý°æ´óÈ«Ãâ·Ñ×ÊÁÏ community groups, for delegates attending certain °ÄÃÅÕý°æ´óÈ«Ãâ·Ñ×ÊÁÏ events, or for scientists interested in particular subtopics. °ÄÃÅÕý°æ´óÈ«Ãâ·Ñ×ÊÁÏ Constituent Societies are also able to post news in a °ÄÃÅÕý°æ´óÈ«Ãâ·Ñ×ÊÁÏ channel.

Most information is presented in the form of posts, authored by scientists, policy-makers, educators and other professionals in the molecular life sciences. Contributors span a wide career spectrum, from directors of key research institutes in Europe, highlighted by the , to the activities from the students and young researchers of the °ÄÃÅÕý°æ´óÈ«Ãâ·Ñ×ÊÁÏ Junior Section.

The °ÄÃÅÕý°æ´óÈ«Ãâ·Ñ×ÊÁÏ Network has developed from a collaboration between °ÄÃÅÕý°æ´óÈ«Ãâ·Ñ×ÊÁÏ and its journal publisher Wiley, and is hosted using software from Zapnito, who specialize in creating expert-led networks. The °ÄÃÅÕý°æ´óÈ«Ãâ·Ñ×ÊÁÏ Integration and Networking Committee of senior scientists oversees the aims and strategy of the °ÄÃÅÕý°æ´óÈ«Ãâ·Ñ×ÊÁÏ Network. For more on this new initiative from °ÄÃÅÕý°æ´óÈ«Ãâ·Ñ×ÊÁÏ, see the ‘‘ post.

If you are interested in becoming a contributor to one of the °ÄÃÅÕý°æ´óÈ«Ãâ·Ñ×ÊÁÏ Network channels, the °ÄÃÅÕý°æ´óÈ«Ãâ·Ñ×ÊÁÏ Integration and Networking Committee would be pleased to hear from you; please contact [email protected] for more information.
