2010 NMC Symposium for the Future – Call for Proposals Is Open

Proposals for presentations for the 2010 NMC Symposium for the Future, a special 3-day, live online event to be held October 19 - 21, 2010, are being solicited through Sunday, September 15. 

The Symposium, the sixteenth in the NMC’s Series of Virtual Symposia, will explore actual and potential applications of technology that could impact issues of global importance over the next five years and beyond. The applicability of technology — whether established or emerging — to the social, environmental, and educational challenges we face today is a central theme of the Symposium. Projects that test the applicability of new ideas, research into new solutions for global problems, and demonstrations of cutting-edge tools are all part of this exploration of the future.
