Newswire Bridges Research News, Journalism and Business!

Newswise delivers the knowledge-based news behind tomorrow's headlines

We bring you a mix of research and business news that helps community and business leaders put change into a sustainable perspective. One of our trusted sources is Newswise.com, a bridge that connects research and journalists so we can connect you with the changes shaping our world.

Roger S. Johnson, PhD, President of Newswise has helped develop an international platform that brings scientific and world changing insights to us all. Journalism has been "democratized" with dramatic rapidity and breadth in the past 5 years. And it's up to us to participate in credible ways.

Dr. Johnson recognizes this trend, and encourages us all to participate in our civic discourse, "When you interact with organizations with research news about the environment, please suggest they put it on Newswise, which would make it easier for you to receive it,"

Roger was a scientist and then a science journalist. He started Newswise in 1991, before the World Wide Web existed, as the first online resource for journalists seeking research news.
