This is not just an incremental step forward. It changes fundamentally the way these scientists can do their work.

It is likely that the Turkish outbreaks will be more accessible to flu scientists than those cases in Vietnam and Thailand, where it's been very difficult to penetrate.

In Mongolia local ranchers are making observations, helping the scientists with their own research. I think we too could have a stronger partnership with the farmers.

This is great for scientists trying to find data. But it's not great to browse.

Northrop Grumman has assembled a strong team of skilled computer scientists that will employ leading software engineering processes to help improve the use of NASA's supercomputers. We will leverage our own investment in high-performance networking architectures to bring the latest technology to NASA scientists.

A scientist shouldn't be asked to judge the economic and moral value of his work. All we should ask the scientist to do is find the truth-and then not keep it from anyone.
