Physicist Fernanda Foertter has created Advanced Physics Forums, a site where her fellow graduate students can exchange ideas about things physical. More than 100 people have signed up to use the moderated site since its launch last August.
Although he now works for a software engineering company, former physics professor Doug Craigen hasn’t lost his interest in teaching physics. Among his hobbies is collecting items for his site Physics Textbook Errata.
More science fiction than science fact, the Nanomedicine Art Gallery nevertheless reflects contemporary views of how medical nanorobots and other nanomedical devices might one day appear. Robert Freitas of Zyvex Corp curates the online exhibition, which is hosted by the Foresight Institute.
