The first KAREN forum – Building KAREN Communities for Collaboration – is happening at an Access Grid node near you on 3 – 4 July.

Key presentations from the forum are being broadcast via Access Grid from the conference venue at the University of Auckland.

Tune in to hear Rick Stevens talk about trends in cyberinfrastructure or Paul Arthur present on humanities and the e-research revolution. In the closing keynote address, Ian Foster will be elaborating on the notion of collaboration through discussing ideas underpinning grid technologies.

Access Grid participants will have the opportunity to ask questions at the end of each session.
