Video Archive from Workshop on New Communication Channels for Biology
San Diego, CA, June 30, 2008 -- More than 20 experts presented their views on the future and use of new media and communications in the biological and other sciences. The New Communications Channels in Biology Workshop at UC San Diego was organized by the Calit2-based Community Cyberinfrastructure for Advanced Marine Microbial Ecology Research and Analysis (CAMERA) with funding from the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation. Talks ranged across topics in e-science communications, including science blogs, semantic Web tools, authenticated wiki-like research discussions and analysis, as well as the potential to formalize community-level contributions. Calit2 speakers included CAMERA executive director Paul Gilna and the developer of the Research Intelligence portal, Jerry Sheehan. Calit2 offered a live webcast of the workshop; the individual talks are now archived for on-demand viewing [Windows Media player and broadband connection required; to troubleshoot any problems accessing the videos, click here].| THURSDAY | JUNE 26 |
