VISUALIZATION METAPHORS FOR COMMUNICATING THE STRUCTURE AND DYNAMICS OF 
SCIENCE

Please join us and take part in our lunchtime discussion titled 
"Visualization Metaphors for Communicating the Structure and Dynamics of 
Science" hosted by Julia Laurin, Thomson Reuters and Katy Börner, 
Indiana University.

Date: Sunday, February 15, 2015

Time: 12 PM to 1 PM (PST)

Location: San Jose Convention Center

AAAS Conference Room: Glen Ellen

150 West San Carlos Street

San Jose, CA 95113

This luncheon will provide an opportunity for those who produce and work 
with maps of science to discuss the challenges of visualizing 
non-spatial scientific activity and investigate concrete ways for 
scholars and industry to advance understanding and engagement with maps 
of science. Brief talks by leading experts and brainstorming will be 
used to identify: What visual metaphors have been successful for 
representing trends, emerging research areas, or bursts of activity, 
etc.? Are there best practices for representing non-spatial information? 
How can the different teams producing maps of science collectively 
enhance the legibility and utility of science maps?

Attendance is limited to the first 25 registrants.
