Last month I wrote a post announcing Symplectic Elements as the new research management system that BU is implementing this summer (you can read this post here).
We’re now at the exciting stage of naming the system! The steering group has come up with a list of possible names for you to vote on. Cast your votes below!
If you’d like to add some alternative suggestions, please do this by adding comments to this post. You can also add comments to this post about the alternative suggestions that have been added!
The poll will be open until 19 August. Happy voting! 🙂
