Nieuwe Media & Science 2.0 Info Bijeenkomst UMCG

Editor's Notes

• #6: The cause or at least an important cause is the Web. I want to show what scientist are doing and looking for on the Internet and why
• #8: Web 2.0 is a well-know topic in this community I believe, but it’s growing power can not be described enough. Everything 2.0, also Research! User participation, user generated content, interactivity, live communication, speed, sharing, creating etc
• #13: Simple cycle of workflow. Some aspects libraries and web 2.0 have entered to play a role, but the actual research process bottom three are almost untouched
• #14: And web 2.0 is facilitating all those things with … tools for collaboration, communication and sharing
• #16: The use of web 2.0 apps and tools on research workflow are from the beginning focussing more externally, to show the “ public”. Making science more visible and understandable. Or Science 2.0, or even Open Science, Opens up possibilities that are not always easy to create within work environment network. Reports on the subject in my Delicious. Available workflow tools are often limited, resticted, and do not offer functionality that many web 2.0 tools do Resources: more ways, flexibility, open compared to local networked tools offered Faster; new technologies, standards, developed on the web applied to scientific data & workflow, offer not only researchers themselves to do more, but also open up possibilites to let others share, check, control, analyse, open feedback
• #17: Use of generally available social software and apps is well known. I will not go into these tools in detail, but do want to lift two out shortly.How many of you got a TWITTER account? TWITTER: Real-time expert information also in science, changing the face of science, taking away boundaries to and for scientist I myself am still amazed by the development and use of Virtual worlds.
• #20: Free software to manage labs, experiments,share and publish! Without having to be worried by restrictions called oud by your It or organization. They can’t stop them… Well you could get into trouble if you don’t keep them posted, but… Show the site, and labs out there. Software to manage their lab activities, report, analyse and publish, making it available for many to share, explore and discover
• #21: Proteopedia Proteopedia Mission Statement To collect, organize and disseminate structural and functional knowledge about protein, RNA, DNA, and other macromolecules, and their assemblies and interactions with small molecules, in a manner that is relevant and broadly accessible to students and scientists. Goals for Proteopedia To serve as a forum for the scientific community to share, retrieve and discuss information related to proteins, macromolecules, and small molecules and chemicals of interest. To continue to develop the concept of tying text to three-dimensional, interactive images. To maintain low barriers for contribution.
• #22: Look at Science Commons, NeuroCommons, interesting focus, related to library goals. Text mining, analyses, semantic web techniques, all intersting and relevant from the library point of view. We should not only benefit from their work, but engage and collaborate even more. Data integration Text mining: Linking literature to the semantic web Analytic tools: Beyond search
• #23: SciVee is changing the pace at which science is conducted and communicated. As the first Web 2.0 site that enables researchers to combine video with documentation and data in a media rich format, we enable scientists to make their research more visible, shareable, and accessible throughout the research cycle. Using our patent pending “virtual studio” technology, scientists can easily enhance their journal articles with “pubcasts” by linking and synchronizing video explanations to their published text. Similarly, video summaries can be associated and synchronized with scientific posters to create “postercasts” highlighting the key finding of the research. We also provide easy upload and hosting of videos on topics in all areas of scientific research. Innovations are happening on the web, and we should be there, learn and engage.We do NOT always have to use the the new tools right away, we should always look for APPLIED use for our users. That might result into adapting the technology locally, or embed it in some way, to make it more effective.
• #24: This semantic wiki at OpenResearch.org aims at making the world of science more visible and accessible. Everybody can add his favorite events (e.g. conferences and workshops), co-workers, tools / datasets, community fora or journals. Pooled together these pieces of information constitute a vast knowledge base about who and what moves science forward.
• #25: Numerous examples of scientist looking for collaboration, sharing, communication and dealing with information, and little to no involvement of libraries
• #26: Nature Precedings is a free online service from NPG that enables researchers in the life sciences to openly share preliminary findings, solicit community feedback, and claim priority over discoveries by posting preprint manuscripts, white papers, technical reports, posters, and presentations.
• #28: Desktop & Web: works like social music tools, discovery by simularities
• #31: Most amazing. Within a few clicks, I can see scientist, locations, relations, publications ….. And connect if you want. Without use of any library… Scientist and researchers love this stuff. It offers them a partial solution for their workflow problems, managing, and their need to communicate, share and disseminate ideas and uptputs, which brings me back to the problem of them bypassing the library..
