With 200+ attendees this is likely the most attended CompleNet since Boston (pre-pandemic). Great to see the community gathering at high levels again! Congratulations to @gomezgardenes.bsky.social and team!

It has been announced that CompleNet 2027 will be held in Rochester, NY chaired by @gghoshal.bsky.social!

Still a very good attendance even on the last day! #CompleNet26

Sabrina Gaito starting her presentation now! #CompleNet26

And then it’s the last talk (keynote speaker) for this year! It’s has been amazing!!

It was great pleasure to get invitation for keynote speech to this welcoming, intimate conference.

Very interesting talk from Sylvia Cremer about social interaction networks in real ant swarms and their relationship to disease spread in ants! I wonder how this relates to our work on interaction networks in swarm intelligence #CompleNet26 @marianagmmacedo.bsky.social

CompleNet: day 2 @complenet.bsky.social

Andrea Migliano is Keynote at @complenet.bsky.social and she talks about “Small Worlds, Deep Roots: the cultural origins of hunter gatherer social networks”

Amazing and inspiring special talk at the @cs3conference.bsky.social by our favorite Joker: our longtime friend and collaborator Alex Arenas from @urv.cat Congrats Alex on the CSS award, you rock!!!

If you feel that BlueSky is “different“ from X, the data supports you :) Using a network of 15M users (56% of the platform) we find that the probability that the log-normal law is wrong wrt to the power-law is just ~7% Why that matters? Pop 🧵 follows! 1/ #scaling #NetSky #ComplexSystems 🧪

Great piece by @kakape.bsky.social about BlueSky and the growth of its academic community Feat. @lorenzspreen.bsky.social @carlbergstrom.com @jbakcoleman.bsky.social and others, as well as my efforts to monitor and analyze the network out of the equilibrium regime 👇 www.science.org/content/arti...

I am (slowly) preparing a #ComplexityThoughts about civilizations and their decline. I have found this article, suggesting that there are a few indicators whose increasing trend might provide early warnings. I think it's more complicated than that. Data to suggest? www.bbc.com/future/artic...

The call for our 10th edition is open 🙃! We trained almost 400 young researchers so far 🧑‍🔬 Can you miss one week of network science with leading network scientists in the field? In the beautiful island of Ortigia (Sicily)? Hurry up! Only 60 seats available, deadline 11/02/25

The call for the very special 10th Mediterranean School of Complex Networks is out! @mscxnetworks.bsky.social This year, it will take place in Ortigia, a beautiful small island in Syracuse, Italy. The lineup of lecturers is outstanding! All info in the website: mediterraneanschoolcomplex.net

We have done our best to find some of our historical lecturers, contributing to the success of our School since 2014, and we have prepared a starter pack! If you are missing, let us know! Get in touch and we will add you to the MSCX family ✨ go.bsky.app/4yU4NRG

X Vs BlueSky, Dec 2024 Hordes of unstoppable people on X, desperate for having someone to troll, throwing hate/conspiracy theories/disinformation and igniting conflicts. This is why as a community we should work hard on BlueSky to keep this space safe: safety tools work well here, use them.
