The GCB international program is comprised
of a series of geographically distributed projects each
supported for a one year period with the goal of having
the graduate students and their faculty advisors adopt
longer term collaborative strategies. There is a technology
transfer relationship between FIU and Calit2 at UCSD
in order to realize the vision of team science at all
levels of graduate and post-graduate education and research.
Calit2 has worked with GCB to move collaborative and
visualization tools developed by OptIPuter into a production
mode. Now we are able to incorporate both a graduate
student project and a summer workshop for GCB students
at Calit2.
When: June 30th - July
2nd, 2009
Where: UCSD in La Jolla,
California.

Research on biological
diversity is a global and cyberinfrastructure-enabled science.
The evolutionary origin of biological diversity and ecological
processes that maintain it are active areas of research
involving thousands of scientists worldwide. The outputs
of those systematics and ecological investigations inform
conservation management, government policy and civil society
on the most important environmental phenomena in the history
of mankind—the impacts resulting from
the transformation of speciose natural systems into species-poor,
managed ones. (visit) |

Biodiversity informatics is an interdisciplinary research and infrastructure development activity. It thrives on collaborations among environmental biologists, computer scientists, and network and software engineers. As environmental biology becomes increasingly data-driven, the nature of international collaborations in biodiversity will evolve to include more network-based interactions and communications. Expectations for essentially instantaneous access to data sets and to computational tools and services, will change the timing and logistics of collaborative work. The workshop examined trends where cyberinfrastructure is likely to effect change in biodiversity research informatics. (visit) |

Networking experts from China and the United States gather annually at the Chinese - American Networking Symposium (CANS) to discuss new ideas and advancements in networking technologies. The annual programs, alternately held in the USA and China, include presentations by networking experts, panel discussions, and technical breakout sessions. (visit site) |

The Pan American Studies Institute on Advanced Networking Technologies for E-Science was favorably reviewed and funded by the NSF Office of International Science and Engineering. The intellectual merit is that anew bridge between astronomy, physics and the advanced networking community will be created, fostering new discoveries. The PASI will not be a locus for fundamental research; rather it will incubate a new generation of scientists and engineers who are capable of fully integrating advanced networking into astronomy and physics research and education. |

The SC2004 conference will bring representatives from many technical communities together to exchange ideas, celebrate past successes and plan for the future. To reflect this important function, the conference theme is Bridging Communities, which represents not only the technical communities participating in the conference but the architecture of the city, too. |
