Back to work with MyScienceWork

[September 2-6, 2013] The editors’ note about your science week

Here in Paris, “la rentrée” is well underway, meaning vacation is over and everyone is back at his or her desk. The difference between summertime and September-time isn’t as marked in all countries, but the month often brings that feeling of a fresh start. That’s particularly true at MyScienceWork where we’ve just launched our fresh, efficient, newly redesigned site. You’ve got to see it! This week we also talked about elements that are important for feeling successful and satisfied at work. Check out this and other articles on the professional front. And then…get back to work!
