Dr Andrew Cox is one of the panelists (together with Jutta Haider, Isto Huvila, Helena Francke and Hazel Hall) for a session Transformation or Continuity? The Impact of Social Media on Information: Implications for Theory and Practice at the American Society for Information Science and Technology annual meeting in Baltimore, USA, this week.
Dr Paul Reilly and Dr Elisa Serafinelli organised a workshop with colleagues from Euro-Med Seismological Centre (EMSC) in Paris on 10th January, as part of the Horizon 2020 funded project IMPROVER. Delegates from organisations such as SNCF and VISOV were invited to give their views on the role of social media in disaster response. Thanks to Grigore Havarneanu and the International Union of Railways (UIC) for hosting, and for Laura Petersen and Laure Fallou for their facilitation of the focus group.
