The Siberian Times is an English-language news website that was originally launched in Novosibirsk, Russia, in 2012. According to the editor of the website, Svetlana Skarbo, their aim is to challenge stereotypes about the region, which have been described as "negative and out of date". Former employees at East2West Limited have made accounts saying the idea for the site was formulated by Will Stewart, a British journalist who often cites it as a source in his articles. Stories from the news site are increasingly garnering the attention of the Western media. One such is an article about frozen Siberian worms becoming reanimated after thawing out of the permafrost. The story was also reported by the Smithsonian website, although a separate claim was made by the academic journal Doklady Biological Sciences. More information...
