IT for Research Day 2018

We will present you with new perspectives in this special event. SWITCHengines, which was developed for the needs of Swiss researchers, is being enhanced in the SCALE-UP project (for a short summary see https://projects.switch.ch/scale-up/). Both projects were granted start-up funding by swissuniversities’ program “Scientific information” (P-5). SWITCH and swissuniversities will seize the occasion to give you more information about the project for a Coordination Office for Scientific Information (COSI), scheduled to be operative from 2021 onward.

Wednesday 19 September 2018, 10:00 - 17:00h
University of Berne, Main Building, Kuppelraum (Sitemap)

 

Please apply early, as we will attribute the seats on a “first come - first serve” basis.
The number of places is limited to 100.
