provides an introduction to VIVO, a tool for representing information 
about research and researchers - their scholarly works, research 
interests, and organizational relationships.

By the end of 2012, over twenty countries and fifty organizations will 
provide information in VIVO format on more than one million researchers 
and research staff, including publications, research resources, events, 
funding, courses taught, and other scholarly activity.

The rapid growth of VIVO and of VIVO-compatible data sources speaks to 
the fundamental need to transform scholarship for the twenty-first century.

A ubiquitious, open information infrastructure for scholarship, 
consisting of linked open data, open-source software tools, and a 
community committed to sustainability are emerging to meet the needs of 
scholars today.

Meet the authors during the 3rd Annual VIVO Conference.

presentations, invited speakers, Birds of a Feather (BOF) sessions,

Due to the overwhelming popularity from last year's VIVO conference, we 
are adding even more time for networking opportunities during the 
conference, including BOF sessions and lightning round presentations 
during the lunch breaks on Thursday and Friday.

Bring your slides and be prepared to give a 5 minute talk on your topic 
of choice. This is a perfect opportunity to talk about preliminary 
results or an area of interest that complements the many themes 
presented during the scientific sessions and poster presentations at the 
conference. Sign-up sheets will be available at the registration desk.

A complete schedule of this year's conference program will be available 
soon, stay tuned!
