Our mission is to sample the diversity and drama of Penn State’s $606-million-a-year research program as a public service to inform, entertain, and inspire the University community.
We do this in several ways:

Themes, Explorations, and Weekly Features
In June of 2005, we launched “Future Fuel? On the Road to a Hydrogen Economy” — an in-depth report with articles, movies, sound clips, animations, and graphics. Upcoming themes will focus on such wide-ranging topics as aging, homeland security, nanotechnology, memory, and obesity. Also, look for our weekly features — text, images, video, and audio — that tell the story of research and intellectual activity at Penn State.
Browse or search our archive, which includes the full text of Research/Penn State magazine back to 1993, and a series of dispatches from our reporters in the field. These explorations give readers the opportunity to watch research as it happens and to ask questions of the faculty involved.
