For the past 41 years the Council for the Advancement of Science Writing—a group of distinguished American journalists and scientists committed to improving the quality of science news reaching the general public—has annually held a four-day New Horizons in Science Briefing. It's about scientific and medical developments deemed likely to become newsworthy in the coming months. On October 26-29, 2003, Oak Ridge National Laboratory and the University of Tennessee hosted the briefing in Knoxville and at ORNL. The Laboratory and UT were honored that the Council's executive director, Ben Patrusky, selected eight ORNL researchers and four UT faculty members as speakers at the conference, which was attended by more than 100 science writers, including several from nationally recognized newspapers, magazines, radio news programs, and television news networks. The "Groundbreaking Science" articles in this issue describe the groundbreaking research presented by the local speakers.
