« Welcoming a new blogger to the team: Jukka-Pekka Onnela | Main | Communities in Networks »
20 September 2009
While I am making announcements, I will also mention the upcoming Workshop on Information in Networks, taking place Sept 25-26 in NYC. This workshop, put together by Sinan Aral at NYU, pulls together a multidisciplinary all star cast of scholars in this area. A brief description from the website:
WIN is a Social Networks Summit intended to foster collaboration and to build community. The increasing availability of massive networked data is revolutionizing the scientific study of a variety of phenomena in fields as diverse as Computer Science, Economics, Physics and Sociology. Yet, while many important advances have taken place in these different communities, the dialog between researchers across disciplines is only beginning. The purpose of WIN is to bring together leading researchers studying 'information in networks' - its distribution, its diffusion, its value, and its influence on social and economic outcomes - in order to lay the foundation for ongoing relationships and to build a lasting multidisciplinary research community.
