As a guide to the latest research trends in the UK electronics industry, please see a new online initiative that we have just begun: the Electronics Weekly UK Research Map.
Using the 
familiar Google Maps system, it provides a quick geographical overview of electronics research news. Each point on the map links to an associated news story that we have covered on Electronics Weekly.
It is not a definitive account of all research underway in the UK, by any means, but we hope it will prove a useful or interesting guide. We will keep updating it from this point on, so its value as a resource will hopefully grow.
