The satellite is being hosted by our AccelNet-MultiNet team. AccelNet-MultiNet program is an NSF-supported effort, led jointly by the Network Science Institutes of Northeastern University (NetSI) and Indiana University (IUNI), to expand international collaborations centered around the exploration of multilayer network science.

Contributed Talk by Xindi Wang, Alexander J. Gates, Magnus Resch and Albert-László Barabási

On July 2nd, 10–12 EST, as part of the Networks 2021 conference, a joint Sunbelt and NetSci Conference, Nature editors Mary Elizabeth Sutherland and Federico Levi will host a round table on Computational Social Science.

Networks 2021: A Joint Sunbelt and NetSci Conference will be an all-virtual event. Preconference satellites and workshops will be taking place on June 21-July 2, and the main conference will run from July 5-10, 2021. It will be the first combined meeting of the International Network for Social Network Analysis (Sunbelt XLI), and the Network Science Society (NetSci 2021).

Please join us for the sixth annual "Speed Data-ing” research collaboration event, co-hosted with the NULab for Texts, Maps, and Networks. Speed Data-ing brings together potential collaborators to discuss a range of digital humanities and computational social science research questions, methodologies, and data sets.

This roundtable will feature leading researchers on misinformation regarding COVID-19, as well as remarks from our special guest, the US Surgeon General, Dr. Vivek Murthy. It is part of the Combating Misinformation speaker series, and is cosponsored by Northeastern’s NULab for Texts, Maps, and Networks and Network Science Institute, the COVID States Project, the Social Science Research Council, the Rockefeller Foundation, and the Digital Public Library of America.

CCEGN-5 explores topics at the interface between network science, random graphs, and statistical physics, bringing together world-renowned experts in these areas.

What do you think are the most promising areas of development or the biggest scientific challenges to meet in the area of multilayer network science? Join our conversation on July 15 and talk with other members of this fast-growing area.

On behalf of the AccelNet-MultiNet collective, we are pleased to announce the 2022 AccelNet Collabathon! A “collabathon” (combination of “collaboration” and “hackathon”) is a multi-day event where researchers come together to build software and form collaborations around one core idea. The idea of a Collabathon is inspired by large-scale collaborations in fields like cosmology and physics, where hundreds of researchers work together to discover and analyze a new fundamental phenomenon (e.g. recently, the discovery of gravity waves).
