We are happy today to welcome you to The Lens, KAUST’s new internal blog. The Lens is designed to provide you with a one-stop shop for news, announcements, links, and contacts. It is available to ALL in the community, (employees, spouses, children), without a login, provided you are accessing the internet through the KAUST network. It will be updated, like news blogs, dynamically and frequently, so be sure to check it daily. You may also want to bookmark it, make it your home page, and/or subscribe to its RSS feed. We hope you find it a useful and informative tool. Feel free to contact us at thelens@kaust.edu.sa.

I tried to subscribe to the RSS feed of this blog but got only an error “The feed being requested cannot be found.” Any chance to fix it?
Thanks,

Thank you for your feedback. You are not the only one with this problem. We are investigating what we believe is a conflict between browser versions and RSS versions and will post as soon as we track down the solution.
We believe the issue is that this internal blog and the RSS feed is not available outside KAUST. If a reader is hosted outside KAUST, it will try fetching the data to show it in its own app and it won’t work properly. We suggest using an in-browser RSS reader or extensions to subscribe to the feed.
I love the design!
Thank you. You’re very kind.
Congrats on the launch of The Lens. Clean, readable style, simple to navigate. Like the calendar interface, links, contacts, posts. Love the new KAUST video!You guys rock.
