The front page of this site is supposed to be dynamic. The idea is to show a recent list of contributed research pages, news items and events. Each item in the list has a title and a short teaser (about 5-10 lines). If a teaser interests the reader he or she can click through to read the entire post.
Currently this feature is under development and we have to do with the current static front page. Once the dynamic front page is fully functioning you will find notes here on how to promore your contribution to the front page.
