Many software engineers (i.e., those that actually program on a daily basis) are unaware of the dedicated sub-field of software engineering researchers (like these from Microsoft) whose mission is to help make the daily grind of writing software better. While software engineering researchers have historically had limited practical impact, there are some notable companies and tools that were born out of software engineering research, and many brilliant, driven individual researchers who want to have impact. I hope that raising awareness of this research among software engineers will encourage more feedback to the software engineering research community, ultimately leading to more useful output.
