This newsletter is sent to staff and students at LIFE and SCIENCE and will replace eLIFE and SCIENCEnews. Subscribers will receive the newsletter in their mailbox every Thursday afternoon.

For the time being, LIFE's CMS and newsletter module will be used until we have a more permanent solution through KUnet. Therefore, not all activities are automatically fed into the system. You are welcome to write to the newsletter at with information and announcements.
