by Kathryn Cook 09 May '08

Dear All, A third year PhD student in Durham has recently launched a website which you may find interesting , www.graduatejunction.com <http://www.graduatejunction.com> designed to help graduate researchers make contact with other researchers interested in their work. The idea is to connect people who would otherwise not be aware of each other, perhaps in different groups, departments or institutions. Increasing communication can prevent duplication of effort and help the spread of new ideas. Best regards Kathy
