Re: HCLS Scientific Discourse Call Monday, 11 April 2011 10 am EST, 3 PM BST: talk by Jodi Schneider

Hi,
Regrets - I can't make the call today.  Will be at Nano 2011: Medicine, Science, and Engineering (at RPI).

>> - The connection (and if there is one) between nanopublications/triples/research highlights (will explain on the call) and medium-grained structure
>> - Uses for medium-grained structure mark up: what would be a good set of use cases? Can we find some concrete projects to work on?
>> - An issue that has been discussed on a few calls now which we can also discuss is the difference between data, author's intent, persuasive structure and nanopublication-type summaries.
>> - A point that Joanne raised: can we plan a meeting to discuss this stuff in person?
