Welcome to the ScienceOnline 2010 Blog

By sb admin on January 11, 2010.

The ScienceOnline conference brings together scientists, bloggers, journalists, writers, educators, students, entrepreneurs, and others to discuss the ever-expanding role of the Internet in the practice and communication of science, and to share new tools and practices that facilitate these goals.

This year's conference will take place January 15-17 in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina. With 250 registered participants including 25 of our own ScienceBloggers and a program ranging from a tour of the Duke Lemur center to sessions on citizen science, scientific visualization, and open access in the developing world, the weekend promises to deliver a wealth of bloggable material. You can start reading about it here, now, and we invite you to follow along as things get underway!
