Dear Colleagues
Eduserv Symposium 2009: Fostering an Identity and Access Management Commons
for e-Research
I am very pleased to announce that the Eduserv Symposium 2009 will be held
on Thursday 21st May 2009 at the Royal College of Physicians, London. More
details about the event are available from:
http://www.eduserv.org.uk/events/esym09
This symposium will investigate the intersection between identity
management, access management and scholarly research collaboration across
institutional and geographical boundaries in a world in which the Web has
become ubiquitous and in which we see both institution-centric and
user-centric identity solutions competing for our attention. The event is
intended to appeal to policy makers and senior researchers within
institutions, research councils and similar bodies, librarians, senior staff
in computing facilities, as well as staff in organisations that provide
research-related services to the UK higher education sector.
Confirmed presenters include:
James Farnell, Joint Information Systems Committee;
Cameron Neylon, Science and Technology Facilities Council;
Mike Roch, University of Reading;
David Smith, CABI;
John Watt, National e-Science Centre (Glasgow).
To register for the event please use our online registration form which can
be accessed from the above URL.
All places for the previous two symposia have filled up within a couple of
weeks so we recommend that you register early in order to avoid
disappointment. If you have any questions about the Symposium, please
