Open science: sharing our clean water breakthrough data with all scientists



By: Dr. Francois Grey

5 Aug 2015 

Summary The Computing for Clean Water team is pleased to announce that the breakthrough paper we published online last month on the use of nanotechnology for more efficient water filtration will be available in the August print edition of Nature Nanotechnology. With our results published, we're now making the underlying data available to other interested scientists and discussing the attention our work has gotten, both from international experts in the field and from the world media.

It's been a month since Nature Nanotechnology published our Computing for Clean Water paper online, detailing how water flow through carbon nanotubes can be dramatically accelerated, potentially improving access to clean water for millions of people. This week, the print edition of the journal will be published, so it's a good moment to make sure that we're sharing the benefits of our research with the wider scientific community. Today, we want to announce that we're fulfilling a commitment to open data, and we also want to share with you some of the responses our work has already gotten.

Outsmart Ebola Together - Join us?

Amidst the cases of the Ebola virus entering the United States, the question has been raised as to why there has not been any research or fund-raising towards fighting this disease; among the many possible answers to this question, perhaps the most disturbing has been that the Ebola virus primarily affected a third-world country.

As disturbing as the answer may be, it is in all likelihood the most truthful.

Shortly after contemplating posting this, I discover that World Community Grid now is sponsoring/offering work to combat Ebola.
