There are (as anyone will agree) very few engineering blogs out there, especially compared to science blogs. But from today, Imperial College London’s Department of Chemical Engineering has its very own blog, written mainly by senior staff members, including two professors.

I helped them set it up this morning and it’s early days yet, but please can Nature Networkers show their support for the plucky bloggers by visiting the site and leaving comments of encouragement? With any luck, more Imperial engineers will get on board… So far, we have four.
