There were dozens of sessions, 15 key speakers, presentations of innovative works and workshops on the most varied topics. And now all this content from the TICAL2020 and the 4th Latin American e-Science Meeting sessions, which took place online between August 31 and September 3, is available online for the Latin American research and education community.

The discussion on the importance of "artificial and natural" intelligences for the development of intelligent universities and the signing of the agreement for the creation of the Latin American Telemedicine University Network, RUTE-AL, were the highlights of the second day of activities of the TICAL2020 Conference and the 4th Latin American e-Science Meeting (Tuesday 1), which are taking place online from Monday, August 31, until next Thursday, September 3.

Instead of conversations in the hallways, we had tweets. In the place of group photos, screenshots. And instead of farewell hugs, the immense desire to meet in person in 2021. The 10th edition of the TICAL Conference and the 4th of the Latin American e-Science Meeting came to an end on this Thursday 3rd. The event was held online since Monday, August 31, on the site tical2020.redclara.net, given the difficulties imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic.

“At RedCLARA, and I am sure that in the community of our networks, we believe that the place to initiate this change is education. We need to invest in education and create and strengthen the tools to make that investment as effective as possible. With such levels of underinvestment, our organizations have an important story to tell and relevant contributions to make. The academic networks of the world are a role model, they have a mode of action, an ethos, that show the potential of our species when guided by the right emotions. The world of networks, we have endeavoured to put people forward, to allow them not only to continue with their lives, but to advance, and that is something that gives hope and strength to face everything the hardest, more than technological networks, we are a VERY HUMAN network ”. These heartfelt words from the Executive Director of RedCLARA, Luis Eliécer Cadenas, were part of the opening speech of the tenth edition of TICAL and the fourth of the Latin American e-Science Meeting that began today at 14:00 GMT online on the https://tical2020.redclara.net/. 

With the participation of its honorary president, Ernesto Chinkes, and a qualified team of speakers, the TICAL2020 Conference and the 4th Latin American Meeting of e-Science arrived, this Wednesday, to its third day of activities with the discussion around the digital transformation of the intelligent university and the role of universities in the so-called “Digital Economy”. The events have been taking place online since Monday, August 31 at https://tical2020.redclara.net.
