Until the inception of bridges - The OST's Publication on S&T Policy in 2004, the OST published the online-publications Voices on US Science & Technology Policy and inform@ion for Austrian Research & Science Abroad. To read previous editions of bridges, go to the bridges Archive.
New
trends in research and development are the main element of reports and
commentaries in this electronic newsletter published in English.
Readers of Voices come from many fields: Austrian industry, the
sciences, research, higher education and keyplayers in science policy. Voices - on US Science & Technology Policy was discontinued
with the appearance of bridges in 2004.

...building
bridges of knowledge & expertise between Austria and North America:
Relevant information pertaining to developments in the areas of
research, the sciences and science policy in Austria and the EU is
prepared for Austrian scientists and scholars in North America. The
newsletter also informs its readers of calls and has a special focus on
the OST's network. inform@ion appears every six to eight weeks with
double summer and winter editions. Until May 2003, the newsletter was only written in German. At that point, it became a
bilingual (German and English) newsletter so as to better serve its
primarily North American readership. OST inform@ion for Austrian
Research & Science Abroad was discontinued with the appearance of bridges in 2004.
