Hey NetPals! 🔥 Time for a quick recap on what we covered in the last seminar. Last Thursday at NetPLACE, we hosted Victor Brabant from Université Lyon 1, who shared his experience balancing a PhD with a corporate job. How hard is it to do a PhD while working for a company?

👉🏼 This is a good time to move

HOI: A Python toolbox for high-performance estimation of Higher-Order Interdependencies from multivariate data 🚀 Congrats to Matteo Neri, Etienne Combrisson, @dan_marinazzo, Thomas Robiglio, C Ferreyra, O Ates, M Ontivero-Ortega Here is the link 🌐 joss.theoj.org/papers/10.2110…

Another interesting starter pack from yrCSS | Now on Bluesky & Mastodon to showcase the work of early career researchers in complex systems 🦋 tinyurl.com/27fvswhn

Excited to announce PANINIpy, a package for nonparametric inference with networks in Python! We go beyond community detection and network reconstruction to "MDL-ify" a range of unsupervised learning problems on graph data. Actively seeking contributions! joss.theoj.org/papers/10.2110…

🔥 Hey hey! Exciting seminar announcement! This week we are very happy to have Amahury JL Diaz Complexity Cat 🐱 discussing chemical automata as energy-efficient approaches for unconventional computing. 📅 Mark your calendars: 28th Nov, 4pm UK (GMT) 📷 Zoom: netplace.site

🐒✨ Excited to share our new Science paper: "Population connectivity shapes chimpanzee cumulative culture." 🧬 This work by Federico Battiston, Onkar Sadekar & collaborators explores how migration & networks influence cultural complexity in chimps. Read more: bit.ly/3ZkPvwc

🔥 Hey NetPals! Just your friendly seminar recap. Last time, we welcomed Yuan Zhang from the University of Zurich, who talked about selective exposure and echo chambers on social media.

🔥 Hey NetPals! This week, we welcome Francesco Bortolotti, who will discuss modeling social systems in the age of GenAI, covering methods, challenges, and real-world examples 📊🤖. 📅 Mark your calendars: 12th Dec, 5pm UK (notice the time!) 🔗 Zoom: netplace.site

🔥 Hey NetPals! It's time for our usual seminar recap! In the last session, we had the pleasure of discussing chemical automata networks and the challenges of lacking motivation in academia with Amaury J. L. Diaz Complexity Cat 🐱 from Binghamton University.

I have eventually made an account at Federico Battiston.bsky.social

Today, Alessia will discuss the impact of group interactions on climate-related discussions and the transition from PhD to researcher in academia. Don’t miss out!

🔥 Hey Pals, we're back! This week, we are happy to have Sagar Kumar (S) discussing models of information spread in populations and giving us his views on interdisciplinary research. 📷 Save the date: 6th Mar, 4pm UK time Zoom: netplace.site

🔥 Two new pre-prints are out: 👉 "Urban Safety Perception Trough the Lens of Large Multimodal Models: A Persona-based Approach" lnkd.in/ddSM3uez 👉 "Understanding Urban-Rural Disparities in Mobility Inefficiency for Colombia, Mexico, and India" lnkd.in/d56ZzWHB

Very happy to finally have Helcio + crazy interesting work:)

🔥 Hey NetPals! This week, we're excited to welcome William Thompson from the University of Vermont, who'll talk about stochastic opinion dynamic models and finding (or not finding) your niche as a researcher. 📅 When: 17th Apr, 4pm UK time Zoom: netplace.site

🚨Just 1 week to go! Join us in London on May 16 for the workshop on Networks & Physics! Keynotes, collabathon, ERC-style pitches & more 🧠💥⚛️ 🆓Registration is free 💸Travel/accommodation support available for those who register by May 9 👉 netplace.site/event/netplace…

🚀 After a series of successful panels in previous years, NetPlace returns to NetSci 2025 in Maastricht with: "Science as a craft: Balancing career and skill progression". 🗓️ June 2, 2025 | 1:00–2:00 PM 🔗 Details: netplace.site/event/netsci25…

🎉 We welcome Andreia Sofia Teixeira Sofia Teixeira, Associate Professor in the Network Science Institute at Northeastern University London, as our first NetSci 2025 panelist! She bridges network science and machine learning to explore complex systems and collective behavior.
