Time flies, and we look forward to seeing you all at Häringe Castle in two weeks.One of our most important goals with SeRC is to build a wide and strong general e-Science competence in the Stockholm/Linköping area, and to get inspiration for this we have managed to get a number of very distinguished international profiles within e-Science to join us. They will share their knowledge and experience from similars centers in Europe to give us a flying start. We will also present what has been done this far in SeRC, and what we are trying to achieve by forming “e-Science Communities”. There is also time reserved for a very informal poster session to get a chance to talk about scientific collaboration too, and we will finish with an industrial panel.
