YouTube for Scientists - SciVee Video Sharing (VIDEO)
[Edit]
[Edit]
Sometimes even scientists have a hard time understanding the heavy, technical jargon of research papers. They’re hoping that by sharing video presentations, ideas will flow more quickly within the scientific community and enable new ideas to evolve more quickly. The site was launched by the National Science Foundation, the San Diego Supercomputer Center and the Public Library of Science.
The site allows researchers to upload presentations -- including podcasts, video, written material, and profiles -- for free. Other scientists can view the presentations and papers, as well as discuss the material with the authors and each other. Users can subscribe to particular channels and contribute to the evolution of the site itself.
"SciVee also facilitates the creation of communities around specific articles and keywords," the Web site operators explain on their site. "Use this medium to meet peers and future collaborators that share your particular research interests."
