<div>Hi, all,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I hope you have enjoyed relaxing spring break. I wanted to let you know about a new, exciting online magazine, "Undark," which is now up and running. "Undark" is housed in MIT's Knight Science Journalism program (KSJ), part of MIT's STS Program. Deborah
Blum, the director of the KSJ program, is the Publisher, and Tom Zeller, Jr., a recent KSJ alum (and formerly of the New York Times) is the editor. The online magazine is available here:</div>

<div><br>
</div>
<div>Deborah wrote a marvelous editorial to introduce Undark and its mission:</div>

<div><br>
</div>
<div>The magazine will have a big public launch in a few weeks, during the Cambridge Science Festival, but there's lots of great material already up and available -- including a lovely, brief essay by our colleague Alan Lightman:</div>

<div><br>
</div>
<div>and a timely, smart article by Anna Wexler, a PhD student in our HASTS program:</div>

<div><br>
</div>
<div>plus much more.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Congratulations to Deborah and her colleagues for this exciting new magazine, which helps extend the mission of KSJ and STS in a whole new dimension!</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>best,</div>
<div>Dave</div>
