Hacker Dojo Friends

Science needs your brains!

Despite the high concentration of smart people in the world of science, they need help from the world of hackers. There are many challenges - life science experiments spitting out terabytes of data, outmoded methods of information exchange, data locked within closed systems...

Cross-pollination between the hacker community and the open science community would help. A lot.

Science Commons (a branch of Creative Commons )is an organization that is working to encourage this cross-pollination and bring web thinking to the world of science.

October 15th we are having a Science Commons Salon in Mountain View. Come learn some stuff about science and about how science geeks really need computer nerds!

You can find a link to the registration here [http://sciencecommons.org/events] and if you enter the discount code "HackerDojo" you will get tickets for $5 instead of $18
