Cyberscholar Working Group

In collaboration with the Berkman Center and the MIT Comparative Media Studies program the Cyberscholar Working Group is a monthly forum for fellows and affiliates to discuss their ongoing research. Each session is focused on the peer review and discussion of current projects submitted by a presenter.

Meeting alternatively at Harvard, MIT and Yale, the working group aims to expand the shared knowledge of young scholars by bringing together these preeminent centers of thought on issues confronting the information age. Discussion sessions are designed to facilitate advancements in the individual research of presenters and in turn encourage exposure among the participants to the multi-disciplinary features of the issues addressed by their own work.
