NeuroWiki

(copied from "News" template in Feb 2007)

I'd like to let you all know about NeuroWiki. Unlike Wikipedia, NeuroWiki is not an encyclopaedia or textbook containing settled knowledge, but is rather a wiki discussion forum about neuroscience research, especially systems, theoretical, and cognitive neuroscience. NeuroWiki will provide short, collaboratively written summaries of current research trends and ideas, with links to related papers and researchers – this will aid neuroscientists in keeping up with areas outside their specialty, and will allow researchers to learn about things related to their work that they would not have heard of otherwise. However, the best part of NeuroWiki will be the discussions spawned by these topics.

NeuroWiki is open to psychology also, especially cognitive psychology, although its orientation is more scientific than clinical/medical. It seems to me that Psychology Wiki and Neuroscience wiki will complement each other, and perhaps should be SisterSites. Bayle Shanks 23:19, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
