Does a .SCIENCE registrant need to be a university or laboratory?

No formal institutional status is generally required. Independent researchers, educators, communicators, publishers, companies, and citizen-science groups may also register suitable names.

What names work well with .SCIENCE?

Laboratory names, research topics, instruments, projects, journals, conferences, datasets, educational programs, and concise scientific phrases can all create meaningful addresses.
