Publishing research with inseri core for WordPress

Inseri core is a new tool that was created as part of the inseri.swiss project. It is a WordPress plugin that works with various components (e.g. IIIF viewer, Python code, Plotly diagram) in the service of Open Science. The aim is to enable researchers to create and publish interactive online content without the need for web development skills. (Talk in English)

Simplify project management with Trello

Trello is a tool that goes beyond the familiar to-do list to manage tasks intuitively. Individual (sub-)tasks can be marked with deadlines and reminders or assigned to colleagues. This allows you to keep an eye on the progress of tasks. Find out here how Trello simplifies the management of research projects.

Prof. Dr. Adrian Leemann (Institute of Germanic Languages and Literatures, University of Berne)

Change of Venue: The Coffee Lecture will take place at Lerchenweg 36, Room F-105 instead of the Walter Benjamin Kolleg.
