MURL Goals:

•Increase awareness among researchers everywhere about the recent advances in the availability of streaming video technologies

•Provide access anywhere, at any time, to the rich, distinctive seminars of the partner institutions

•Investigate the potential of streaming video and collaborative technologies to change, and improve, the delivery of information and education

•Explore the social and communication issues that may arise from increasing the audience for seminars that are traditionally targeted to smaller, face-to-face groups
