We had the enormous privilege of hosting the Ethoinformatics Working Group 2013 meetings at Washington University last month in St. Louis. Sponsored by the National Science Foundation and organized by Tony Di Fiore, Tom Igoe, Jane Phillips-Conroy, and myself, the meetings brought together primate field researchers, data scientists, and Washington University librarians for three days of discussions about database management, data collection, data archiving, and best practices for the future.
Many thanks to all who attended, and to the many folks at Washington University Libraries and the Department of Anthropology who helped with organizing the event.
