*Junior Researcher Task Force*
Application deadline: *15 July 2015*
The conference will feature a Junior Researcher Task Force, a team of 22
young people responsible for capturing and distributing via social media
the big and recurring conversation topics that evolve under each thematic
area. Selected members will attend all thematically-related sessions, use
Twitter during the conference, and write blog posts immediately following
to synthesize the most exciting research and new ideas.
Graduate students, post-docs, and other junior research staff with an
established professional social media presence (preferred) or an interest
in cultivating one are encouraged to apply. Selected junior task force
members will receive FREE registration (courtesy of the support of CICCA)
to the conference, however all other costs must be covered by the
individual.
