Colleagues,
On behalf of the Conference Organising Committee, we invite you to join us for the 12th eResearch Australasia Conference, to be held at the Pullman Melbourne, Albert Park 15 – 19 October 2018.
eResearch 2018 will offer delegates the opportunity to engage, connect, and share their ideas and exemplars concerning new information centric research capabilities, and how information and communication technologies help researchers to collaborate, collect, manage, share, process, analyse, store, find, understand and re-use information.
Conference workshops will be held on Monday and Tuesday, with the main conference program running from Wednesday to Friday.
More information regarding the conference including invited speakers, social events and engagement initiatives will be released via our website as planning proceeds. We encourage you to check the website regularly for updates.
We look forward to seeing you in Melbourne.
