Hoy hemos celebrado el “6th Foro de Investigación Australia-España: Big Data” en el Australian Hearing Hub, Universidad de Macquarie (Sídney, NSW).

Durante el evento, confeccionamos un hilo de Twitter (en inglés) compilando todas las charlas, los ponentes, la mesa redonda y los premios.

Este hilo de Twitter también está disponible en formato de página web, gracias a la aplicación “Thread Reader Unroll”.

Muchísimas gracias a todos los socios de SRAP-IEAP que han trabajado duro para que el Foro de este año sea un nuevo éxito. En particular, queremos agradecer a nuestro presidente, Joaquín Valderrama (organizador principal del Foro) y a todos nuestros patrocinadores por su apoyo constante.
