  2. Knowledge Transfer: Mechanisms and Stakeholders • Science of Information Community • Broader Scientific Community • Education Community • Industry

  3. Knowledge Transfer: Mechanisms and Stakeholders • http://soihub.org – Our Portal to the World • Intellectual Property • Outreach to Industry • Outreach through workshops and schools • Other efforts aimed at broad participation

  4. Soihub.org: Our Portal to the World • Presentations • Publications • Seminars • Workshops • Student Brown-Bag Series

  5. Soihub.org: Our Portal to the World • All lectures, brown-bag lunches are online live, and open to public.

  6. CSoI Prestige Lecture Series Bringing industry and academic leaders to the Center.

  7. CSoI Workshop Series Bringing students and researchers together for workshops

  8. CSoI Student Workshops Student-led workshops for center-wide interactions and collaborations

  9. SoIHub: Continued Development • Soihub.org is fully functional. We continue to add new functionality and refining the site. • Wiki development and integration is complete. This provides seamless communication/collaboration tools within and outside of the Center. • Developing Computational Biology site – Integrating online project management tools for research community. • Soihub.org emphasizes events, news, video, Center resources, communications, E newsletter, presentations, and list of all Center personnel and connections to each person’s expertise.

  10. Knowledge Transfer -- Education • Creating video based modules/ material available through you-tube channel targeting undergrads, grads, faculty and in-person training on how-to-use materials in the classroom (funded by NSF TUES grant) • Topics include probability theory, entropy, mathematical theory of communication, encoding and decoding, compression, and error correcting, among others. • Brown Bag Lunch – graduate student researchers share their individual research across the center on a monthly basis. Able to broadcast (live and recorded) over Adobe Connect. • All summer school lectures/tutorials are online (most popular educational content on site)

  11. Reaching out to Industry • Externally sponsored research • Personnel exchange • Fellowships, internships, and other forms of support.
