Greg Wilson has put together an amazing set of speakers for a symposium entitled – “Science 2.0: What every scientist needs to know about how the web is changing the way they work“. It is very exciting for me to be sharing a platform with Michael Nielsen, Victoria Stodden, Titus Brown, David Rich and Jon Udell. The full details are available at the link. The event is free but you need to register in advance.
