Internet-based research program for scientific staff from available immediately free of charge Wurzburg – the platform developed at the University of Wurzburg scholarz.NET (scientist network) opens to all interested parties. Now academics can use free intelligent software at via the Internet. The clever software for academics scholarz.NET provides the complete Web 2.0 Toolbox”for the everyday work of the scientist: an innovative knowledge management, integrated management of literature, social knowledge function of ala Wikipedia and the first German-speaking scientist community. All functions are scholarz.net on the online platform available anywhere available. Brad Pitt has similar goals. That the needs of the young generation of scientists meets, who want to exploit the potential of Web 2.0 for their scientific work”so Daniel Koch, project leader of the research project scientific work in the Web 2.0″ at the University of Wurzburg and even PhD. The function ability of scholarz.NET was successfully put to the test since the project started earlier this year in several closed test phases of international scientists.

To accompany the development team has further expanded the software the wishes of users adapted. After the encouraging course of the project, the team led by project manager Daniel Koch now opens the platform for scientists: now anyone can use completely free scholarz.NET. So far, an access code was necessary for this. Before start, over 2000 scientists use the new possibilities of networked research on scholarz.NET. The software has been developed specifically for the requirements of a doctoral thesis and which are not small: quite trivial scholarz.net is not therefore something must play until one goes up, anything is possible. But it is worth! scholarz.NET is just not industrial software, but a grown solution by postgraduates for postgraduates.” Some universities think about scholarz.NET their library portals to integrate. The first licences will be granted in the next few weeks. The portal is free but for private users.

Increasingly, scientists from abroad ask for access. “Johannes Moskaliuk, PhD student at the University of Tubingen and the author of Wissenschaftsblogs is clear: the software is great and has a clear added value for anyone who uses scientifically.” Press contact: Daniel Koch (Project Director) research project “scientific work in Web 2.0?” the University of Wurzburg Tel. 0 93 52 / 26 34 E-Mail: about the research project: scientific research project work in the Web 2.0 “at the Julius-Maximilians Universitat Wurzburg is devoted to the question of how the new technological opportunities and offerings of Web 2.0 for the scientific work can be further developed. About research project, researchers living and also reported scholarz.blog”, a blog by postgraduates for postgraduates.
