By Diana Day: Via Revolution: BBC News created an online journalism scholarship in honor of Ivan Noble, the science and technology writer who died earlier this year from a brain tumor, in response to reader request for a lasting memorial.
Noble gained notoriety for writing an online "tumour diary" from September 2002 until he died at age 37 in January.
The scholarship is "'an ongoing commitment to help reporters to learn the skills of web journalism,'" said Pete Clifton, editor of BBC News Interactive, and will give a new journalist with special interest in science and technology an opportunity to work on bbc.co.uk for six months.
