Hello everyone,
I am writing to remind you that the second NJIT Digital Humanities Showcase 2021 is happening tomorrow, Friday, 4/23, 11AM-2PM. Please register here.
We have a great line up with presenters from institutions in our area and around the world: the program includes two panels, followed by a live digital Poster Session, and a NJDHC/NJIT co-sponsored panel. You can view all the posters here before the event. The session itself will be an opportunity to ask questions to the poster presenters and have productive discussions. (See the full program below.)
Looking forward to seeing everyone there!
Best,
Burcak
