ScienceOnline is an annual conference in NC and an online and offline community that fosters connection and collaboration between scientists, journalists, public information officers, teachers, artists, librarians, physicians, startups, and students.
This Boulder event, a “watch party,” is a combination of recorded and live broadcasts of some of the discussions at the annual ScienceOnline conference in Raleigh, North Carolina. The Denver/Boulder/Fort Collins science community is invited to come and add their own input to the discussions as well as take the opportunity to meet and connect with other members of the community.
We are looking for volunteers to help lead and summarize discussions and to help manage sign-in. Please e-mail sandra.m.chung@gmail.com or DM @sandramchung if you would like to help out!
Please tag your tweets about the watch party with #scioden!
