***BlueSci*** is the oldest of the [University of Cambridge](/source/University_of_Cambridge)'s student-run science magazines. It was first created as a science and technology news website in October 2000 by Lauri Ora, Risto Paju and Rend Platings[1][2] and has been published in its current form continuously since 2004. It is published at the beginning of each term during the University of Cambridge's academic year.[3] *BlueSci'*s editors are voluntary and not paid, and are typically appointed on a yearly basis.[4] They are supported by a permanent member, Senior Treasurer Dr. Björn Haßler, the founding president of [Cambridge University Science Productions](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Cambridge_University_Science_Productions&action=edit&redlink=1). *BlueSci* was originally published in a digital format in 2001. It has since become a recognised brand, and for Issue 11[5] *BlueSci* was adopted as the overall name for the society.

Production of the magazine is currently based at the CUSU Offices on the [New Museums Site](/source/New_Museums_Site). Previously, they were based in the *[Varsity](/source/Varsity_(Cambridge))* premises for over 10 years. The move to the new offices occurred in April 2014.
