Mon Jun 6 08:18:55 UTC 2016

Dear all,

I can recommend you to apply for the OpenCon conference. I attended two years ago and it was awesome!

Applications to attend OpenCon 2016 on November 12-14 in Washington, DC are now open. Applications are open until July 11, but applicants are encouraged to apply early<http://www.opencon2016.org/opencon2016.org/apply>. Applicants can request a full or partial travel scholarship, which will be awarded to most of those accepted. OpenCon 2016 will convene students and early career academic professionals from around the world and serve as a powerful catalyst for projects led by the next generation to advance OpenCon's three focus areas-Open Access, Open Education, and Open Research Data. Through a program of keynotes, panel discussions, workshops, and hackathons, participants will build skills in key areas-from raising institutional awareness to coordinating national-level campaigns effectively. Apply early at opencon2016.org/apply<http://www.opencon2016.org/apply>.

Have a great day!

Best,
Michela
