July 16th, 2013, Vienna, Austria
www.issi2013.org

***Deadline for Doctoral Forum applications: February 4, 2013***

The biannual ISSI conference is the premier international venue for 
research within the areas of informetrics,
scientometrics and bibliometrics. For more information on the scope of 
the conference and the areas of interest please visit the conference web 
site.

For the fifth time a Doctoral Forum is offered at the ISSI conference. 
The primary objective of the Doctoral
Forum is to provide doctoral students with a forum to present and 
discuss their research projects with senior
researchers and fellow students and to develop their relationships with 
other scientists. The Doctoral Forum is a one-day event that will take 
place prior to the main conference on 16 July 2013.

Due to the time consuming form of the Doctoral Forum, the number of 
participants is restricted. The doctoral
forum is only open to the invited senior researchers and the accepted 
students. There is no separate fee for
attending the doctoral forum, but participation requires the students to 
register for the conference.

Doctoral forum committee (senior researchers): to be announced later.

Christian Schlögl (Institute of Information Science and Information 
Systems, University of Graz, Austria)
Ivana Roche (Institute for Scientific and Technical Information, CNRS,
