Congratulations to Dr. Rafael Prieto-Curiel, winner of the Junior Scientific Award 2025, for his contributions to complex systems research through innovative mathematical modelling of social phenomena🎉
Brennan Klein is interested in developing tools and theory for characterizing dynamics, structure, and scale in networks, but also in creating and analyzing large-scale datasets that reveal inequalities in the U.S., from epidemics to mass incarceration. #ComplexNetworks2025
How does social network structure amplify or stifle behavior diffusion? Turns out, complex contagions are more complicated than we thought … (1/7)
Kicking off the machine learning session, @moritzlaber.bsky.social studies how incorporating prior knowledge about network dynamical systems into neural ODEs influences sample efficiency, as well as the correlation between network structure and performance. #NetSci2025
I’m happy to share that our visualisation “Cities Moving” has been shortlisted for an Information is Beautiful Award! Our goal was to make global mobility data comparable and visually engaging with the ABC model. Here is the project 🚶🚴🚌🚗 citiesmoving.com And you can vote for us! lnkd.in/exBSGGiM

Writing is thinking. It’s not a part of the process that can be skipped; it’s the entire point.
Anna E. Clark@annaeclark.bsky.social · 2y agoThis is what's so baffling about so many suggestions for AI in the humanities classroom: they mistake the product for the point. Writing outlines and essays is important not because you need to make outlines and essays but because that's how you learn to think with/through complex ideas.
Hey everyone, the wait is almost over...it's time to gear up for the next edition of the Mediterranean School of Complex Networks! This year brings something extraordinary, with leading scientists ready to inspire and challenge you. Stay tuned for more updates coming soon! #MSCX25 #ComplexNetworks

Surviving the complexity winter
Complexity science in 2024: claiming to be what it has never been, but gladly giving away its Nobel prize. This is a reflection about where the science of complex systems stands today, and where it…

Happy to see this community growing. 🎉 Hoping to see even more #networkscience and #complexsystems posts here in the future.
Other academics: do you ever sneak easter eggs into your published papers? (particular words, phrasings, things in images or plots, references, etc.) If so, what are some of your personal favorites? (I don't do it with every paper, but gosh, it's a fun part of being a professional scientist!)
