Welcome to SORSE - A Series of Online Research Software Events - our international answer to the COVID-19-induced cancellation of many national RSE conferences. We want to provide an opportunity for RSEs to develop and grow their skills, build new collaborations and engage with RSEs worldwide.

This series has been an open call to all RSEs and anyone involved with research software worldwide, to propose a talk, a workshop, a software demo, a panel or discussion, blog post or poster. After many of our events, SORSE provided an opportunity for networking and informal discussion with other participants in small groups.

SORSE ended with its final event on March 24th 2021. Thanks to all the contributors who submitted abstracts and gave presentations, discussions, demonstrations, and thanks to everyone who participated in one of our sessions to make all of this possible.

But this isn’t the end. There is still a need for knowledge exchange and networking within our international community of Research Software Engineers.

Stay tuned and keep an eye on the communication channels of your national RSE chapter.

Any questions, read more or get in touch!
