Opening Conference

The Conference will be opened with a keynote speech delivered by a distinguished expert, especially invited to address some revelant issues concerned to the theme of the meeting - Scientific Communication Today. The presentation will take 45 minutes, followed by a 15 minute session devoted for questions from the public.

 

Conferences

There will be five conferences in which especially invited prominent specialists in the international arena will address keynote issues of scientific publishing and communication, analysing how editor's, publisher's and author's work has been influenced by changing technologies, and what are the challenges the scientific community presently faces. Conferences will take 45 minutes each, followed by a 15 minute session devoted for questions from the public.

 

Panels

There will be six panel discussions following the conferences. Panels are designed to provide an appropriate setting for the discussion of significant issues that have been deeply affecting the scientific communication, and for the exchange of experiences. Panels are planned to take two hours, and gather up to four invited speakers, each one having a maximum of twenty minutes to address her/his points of view. Each presentation will be followed by a 10 minute session devoted for questions from the public.

 

Closing Session

Conducted by representatives of the Conference Commitees and the Organizing Institutions, the Closing Session will summarize the issues discussed at the IFSE-Rio Conference, pointing out the main conclusions, results, and recommendations. A final report will be available after the Conference.
