Scientific publisher Nature Publishing Group (NPG), UK, has announced that regional pages are now available on nature.com. Nature.com regions (www.nature.com/regions) pages provide a regularly updated portal for researchers, students, entrepreneurs, and investors who are interested in a specific country or region.
Nature.com regions launches with pages for Europe, France, Germany, Iran, Israel and Italy. Additional nature.com regions pages are planned, and may range from a single city to a multinational area. Each page brings together relevant research, news, opinion and business content from the Nature family of journals, Scientific American and other NPG resources. Local job listings from NatureJobs, event listings by Nature Events, and local service provider information are also available. Site visitors may also find content in French, German, and Italian provided by local Scientific American partners in respective countries.
Nature.com regions pages build on NPG's drive to provide locally relevant resources. Country-focused portals include Nature India, introduced in February 2008, and Nature China, launched in 2007. This month NPG launched Nature Middle East, which is NPG's third major portal focusing on emerging areas in scientific and medical research.
