Current affairs & breaking news stories
LabRoots is also a leading source of science news. To keep you up-
to-date with current affairs in the science and medical industries,
they publish regular news articles that have been authored by
scientists themselves and other industry experts too. These articles
span across all areas of science and medicine, with a focus on the
topics that are most on trend and relevant to the industry. As well
as those previously mentioned, news articles currently focus on
topics such as ‘microbiology’, ‘cannabis science’, ‘technology’ and
‘drug discovery’. These are all topics that have a particularly heavy
influence within the industry today. Many of the LabRoots articles
have in fact trended online from the sheer amount of readers that
they have had. This is due to them being written by experts at
the forefront of the science and medical industries who can offer
breaking news stories of new discoveries and new technology in
science and medicine. For example, there has been huge talk in
the news recently about the possibility of nuclear war. Therefore,
when the article ‘
Here’s What’d Happen if We Detonated a Nuclear
Bomb in Space
’ was published, it became one of the top trending
scientific articles online.
Points and prizes for participation
If that wasn’t enough to keep you engaged in the world of science
though, LabRoots recently launched its Leadership gamification
platform. This allows you to collect points for engagement with
others on the site, for watching seminars and for event participation
– the more you engage the more points you gain! The site even runs a
monthly competition where the 10 users with the most points for that
month will win a LabRoots gift card to get one of their fun (and kind of
nerdy) scientific themed t-shirts. So, what will you choose when you
win – the ‘Cell-ebrate’ t-shirt or the ‘Trust me, I’m a scientist’ t-shirt?
