[open-science] Content Mining Workshop

[Jenny Molloy]

Hi All

I've had a request from a grad student via the Oxford Open Science group to
run a hands-on workshop on data/content mining from the scientific
literature, which sounds like an excellent idea.

This would be a physically attended event in Oxford sometime Jan-Mar 2013
(get in touch if you or someone you know might like to be involved in
organising or contributing tools/data/exercises!).

However, as well as providing the resources that are prepared for the
workshop online, I thought that it would be great to use the opportunity to
compile a list of tools and tutorials for those interested in finding out
about content mining, what is technically possible and whether it could
assist their research. Does anyone know of a site like this already in
existence? There is some info on the NaCTem site
http://www.nactem.ac.uk/teaching/ and various resources from individual
courses dotted around the web.

It would be a good tie in to the recent work by the working group on a
Content Mining Manifesto and could be hosted alongside this.

Thoughts on either the workshop or website very welcome!

Jenny
