Welcome to the 3.11 "Virtual Conference," co-sponsored by the STS Forum on the 2011 Fukushima/East Japan Disaster and Teach 3.11*1. At 8:00 a.m. JST, March 11th (7:00 p.m., March 10 EDT) we opened the conference by posting a collection of essays that we sincerely hope you will find interesting and provocative for discussion.
Here's how the conference will work:

We encourage you to sign the post with: your name and institutional affiliation at the end of your post.

We also invite you to post information about your own work. To do so, please,
· Post your own thoughts and new topics for discussion at the Fukushima Forum Google Group site*2, either by using the [+New Post] feature at the site, or by simply sending an email to fukushima-forum at googlegroups.com. (The Forum will remain entirely open for the duration of the Virtual Conference.)
You can also see the other participants’ posts there. We may also take the best posts at this site, and add it to our set of “featured essays” during the conference.
Our hope is that the virtual conference will continue to provide people with an opportunity to mark the anniversary of the March 11, 2011 disasters with a time of reflection, scholarly inquiry, and open conversation.
