Emerging Technologies Edit-a-thon

{{#if:in honor of [http://www.nano.gov/node/1657 National Nanotechnology Day]|:in honor of [http://www.nano.gov/node/1657 National Nanotechnology Day]|}}

{{#if:Sponsored by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health|:Sponsored by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health|}}

:This workshop will bring together experienced Wikipedians from across Ohio and Kentucky with scientists at NIOSH's laboratories in Cincinnati. Learn about NIOSH's research on health and safety issues of emerging technologies like nanotechnology and 3D printing from the scientists themselves. Afterwards, we'll work together to improve coverage of workplace health and safety topics on Wikipedia. Lunch will be provided courtesy of [https://wikimediadc.org Wikimedia District of Columbia]!

:NIOSH is the leading federal agency conducting research and providing guidance on the effects of engineered nanomaterials on worker health, and methods to control or eliminate exposures. NIOSH's [https://www.cdc.gov/niosh/programs/nano/default.html Nanotechnology Research Center] coordinates the nanotechnology-related activities of a diverse group of scientists from across NIOSH's many divisions.

Agenda

Because this event is geared towards experienced Wikipedians, a traditional training will not be given. Instead, we'll have a few brief topical presentations over lunch and then proceed to the editing. The following agenda is tentative.

  • Lunch (starting at 12:00)
  • Presentations (12:30–1:30)
  • Overview of NIOSH (Dr. Paul Schulte)
  • Introduction to Nanotechnology (Dr. Gary Roth)
  • Introduction to Additive Printing (Dr. Gary Roth)
  • NIOSH website organization (Chris Storms, Bill Bennett)
  • Local Wikimedia groups (Emery Dalieso, Sydney Poore, Dominic Byrd-McDevitt)
  • Editing on workplace health and safety topics (until 4:30)
