Yale Distilled

Distilled pairs scientific concepts with ethical and political dilemmas. 

DISTILLED: From Disputes to Discussions is a forum for well-informed authors to voice their ideas on scientific debates of increasing societal relevance. Run by students at Yale University, DISTILLED is guided by the philosophy that seemingly disparate modes of inquiry actually have a tremendous amount to say to each other. DISTILLED is not a scientific journal or a popular science magazine. Instead, it combines the best elements of both: rigorous evidence-based argumentation and palatable science.

Nautilus

 

Nautilus examines science and its endless connections to our lives. 

Each month we choose a single topic. And each Thursday we publish a new chapter on that topic online. Each issue combines the sciences, culture and philosophy into a single story told by the world’s leading thinkers and writers. We follow the story wherever it leads us. Read our essays, investigative reports, and blogs. Fiction, too. Take in our games, videos, and graphic stories. Stop in for a minute, or an hour. Nautilus lets science spill over its usual borders. We are science, connected.
