Science is global, so our coverage should be too

The United States has been a world leader in science for decades, both in investment and in volume of research published. But now many countries beyond North America and Europe, including China, India, Japan and South Korea, have become research powerhouses in their own right.

So covering just U.S.-based research would do the readers of Science News a disservice, since it fails to reflect the reality of science as a human endeavor common to all cultures.
