Speed dating through the Research Bazaar
Here at the Research Bazaar, we think of ourselves (sometimes) as matchmakers or even relationship counselors. We love to introduce Melbourne’s researchers to the perfect research tool and help patch things up when researchers and their topics aren’t getting on so well. As part of this strategy, we’re kicking off semester two with two events to help researchers get to know our suite of tools and training a little better.
Just like the other sort of speed dating, on each occasion researchers will have five minutes or so to meet some of our tools, like Python, CartoDB, Omeka and LimeSurvey. If they like what they see, there will be the opportunity to sign up to get to know the tool a little better.
On Thursday July 31, we’ll be running an event with the Graduate School of Humanities and Social Sciences. GSHSS students can register here:

On Wednesday August 13, we’ll be doing it again with the Graduate Student Association, where we’ll be showcasing tools for both the sciences and the humanities. More information and registration is here:

So come along and meet the research tool of your dreams!
