SciTopics SciTopics is Elsevier’s free wiki developed for the scientific community. It is a knowledge-sharing forum where experts can post their findings on the latest in scientific research from a variety of disciplines. "SciTopics is designed to be a starting point for researchers to gain an introductory overview of a particular topic, while also identifying sources for a more in-depth analysis and coverage of that topic. Unlike other web services for the scientific community, SciTopics does not focus on one specific scientific discipline, but is open to researchers from all scientific areas."

More information on SciTopics is available at: http://www.scitopics.com/about.jsp
