Eureka Science News - intelligent science news aggregator

Eureka Science News just launched - it's an intelligent science news aggregator based on machine learning (for classification) and clustering of recent news from all major science sources - I'm a microarray analyst, so I used the same techniques I use to cluster genes, but this time to cluster news!

Introducing the eyeLIMS project

Scientists usually share information with collaborators from all around the world. For that purpose, eyeOS (www.eyeos.org) provides an invaluable system to access and share documents, create and save data files or store crucial personal and professional information.

To see eyeOS widely used by scientists all around the world, we initiated the eyeLIMS project ! eyeLIMS is a community-driven project which aims at providing a Free, web-based, Open Source Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) powered by eyeOS.
