Twitter conference: Research of the Future, the Future of Research

In this conference researchers from the University of Oulu and its collaborators, such as VTT, will discuss how research can serve to build a better future and what research will be like in the future. Follow this Twitter conference on 15 June to learn about the many ways in which research can answer the problems that we will face in the future and how the foresight work done in different research institutions and disciplines can help in the process!

A Twitter conference is a new way to organize a scientific conference where anyone, anywhere can participate with no need to travel. The conference will take place completely on Twitter as researchers tweet their presentations. The presentations will be retweeted by the moderator account @OuluTC.

To participate in the conference, follow @OuluTC on Twitter and the official conference hashtags #FutureResearch and #ResearchFuture. You can follow the conference on Twitter even without a Twitter account via: www.twitter.com/OuluTc
