Lower Mekong Research Symposium: Collaboration through Effective Sharing of Data and Computational Resources will be held in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, on September 6-7, 2018.
Recognizing the value of sharing knowledge, tools, and best practices to tackle globally relevant challenges, the University of Virginia and its partners are convening a research symposium for Mekong and global researchers to engage in discussions to explore mechanisms and opportunities for collaborations. The symposium will focus on identifying data-sharing bottlenecks and develop strategies to build technical capacity for Mekong researchers and institutions.
