Abstract submission is now open for the 2016 SCAR Open Science Conference in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia (20-30 August 2016). The theme of the conference is “Tropics to the Poles”, and there are several sessions that may be of interest to those in the humanities, social sciences, media, and policy, including:
- S33. The role of humanities and social sciences in Antarctic studies
- S34. Footprints in Antarctica, and Antarctica’s footprint: perspectives from history
- S35. Data access and sharing for cutting edge science
- S36. Antarctic education, outreach and training
- S37. Innovative communication of Antarctic science
- S38. Scientific advice for policy
- S39. Antarctic research and the media
More details on each of these sessions is available at http://scar2016.com/?page_id=3478
– plus I’m convening the last session there (S39) so you’ll be hearing more about that in coming months…
