Hello all,

The University of Colorado Boulder is excited to welcome Sarah Lamdan from CUNY
School of Law for a virtual talk on how data cartels collect and commodify
researchers' academic data: "For Love or Money? What Researchers Should Know
about Academic Data Cartels." The talk will take place on Wednesday 2/15 at 2pm
MT (1pm PT/4pm ET/9pm UK/10pm CET). All are welcome! You can register here:

Research metrics data can influence decisions ranging from academic hiring and
retention to allocating grant funding. For those who are interested in learning
more, see "The Quiet Invasion of Big Information"

We hope to see you there! Please feel free to share this message with anyone you
think might be interested.

Best wishes,
Thea

I acknowledge that the University sits upon land within the territories of the
Weenuchiu (Ute), Tsêhéstáno (Cheyenne), and Hinono'eiteen (Arapaho) peoples.
Further, I acknowledge that 48 contemporary tribal nations are historically tied
to the lands that make up the state of Colorado.
