Dear all,

 

I’m writing now to share the NULab’s fall 2020 calendar of events, included below and summarized in the attached flyer. We have some very exciting panels, workshops, and other events planned for the fall. You can find additional details and registration information for these events at: https://web.northeastern.edu/nulab/events/. 

We’ll share any updates or newly-added events on the NULab events page; we’ll also circulate these through the NUDIGITAL list. If you’re not already on this list, we encourage you to subscribe: it’s a shared announcement and discussion list that brings together all areas of digital scholarship, digital humanities, computational social science, media studies, and other related fields at Northeastern University. To subscribe to the list, just visit: https://listserv.neu.edu/cgi-bin/wa?A0=NUdigital and click “subscribe” on the right-hand side of the page.

All fall 2020 NULab events will be virtual. These events are free and open to the public, but registration is required. Please contact [log in to unmask] with any questions.

Please share this message with anyone you know who might be interested—we hope to see you this fall!

All my best,

 

Sarah
