The MDTS11 workshop is sponsoring a data challenge. The challenge builds
atop a dataset from Thomson ISI WoS with a focuses on embryology and
embryonic science from 1956 to 2010. We invite you to download the dataset,
explore it, learn something interesting about it, and submit a contribution
about it on the MDRS11 webpage (http://iscpif.fr/MDTS11). The workshop
itself will feature presentations by authors on march 25 as well as a
broader discussion of data issues and science mapping issues.

Until the submission is closed, people are invited to share pre-processing
of the data on the workshop website. Pre-processing and contribution
submission are independent. People don't need to submit to the challenge to
be eligible for the best preprocessing.
*Awards** :*

   1.

   400€ for the best pre-processing,
   2.

   600€ for the best contribution and first author position for the
   collective paper of the workshop.

The best contributions will be gathered in a collective paper for which
first author will be the winner of the data challenge. The workshop will
hire a reviewer to insure the final rewriting of the paper.
