Tobias has been invited to give a keynote at the eSciDoc days at FIZ Karlsruhe on "Virtual Environments - How can infrastructure matter to research?": http://www.escidoc.org/media/docs/escidoc-days-2009/keynote-blanke.pdf

eSciDoc (https://www.escidoc.org/) is an eResearch environment developed specifically for use by scientific and scholarly communities to collaborate globally and interdisciplinary. It comprises core functionality including a Fedora repository (eSciDoc Infrastructure), a set of complementing services (eSciDoc Services), and application build on top of the infrastructure and the services (eSciDoc Solutions) that enable innovative eScience scenarios. Scientists, librarians, and software developers can work with research data, create novel forms of publications, and establish new ways of scientific and scholarly communication.
