Subject: [BOAI] Applications to Attend OpenCon 2014 Now Open
To: boai-forum@ecs.soton.ac.uk
Applications to attend OpenCon 2014 in Washington, DC from November
15-17 are officially open! Students and early career researchers can
apply now at www.opencon2014.org/apply. The application form includes
the option to apply for a travel scholarship, which will be awarded to
many accepted participants.
Organized by the Right to Research Coalition and SPARC, OpenCon 2014
is the student and early career researcher conference on Open Access,
Open Education, and Open Data and will be held on November 15-17, 2014
in Washington, DC. The meeting will convene students and early career
researchers from around the world and serve as a powerful catalyst for
projects led by the next generation of scholars and researchers to
advance OpenCon's three focus areas
Applications will remain open for 3 weeks--until the end of the day on
August 25th. However, we strongly encourage you to apply early.
Acceptance decisions will begin to be made immediately, and if you
will need a visa to travel to the United States, an early acceptance
decision could give you more time to successfully apply for a US visa.
We're also excited to announce our first OpenCon 2014 speakers,
including Dr. Philip Bourne, the Associate Director for Data Science
at the United States National Institutes of Health, and John Wilbanks,
the Chief Commons Officer at Sage Bionetworks and 2012 TED Global
Presenter. You can find more details on the program at
www.opencon2014.org/program.
Cheers,
Nick
