- Join us this Thursday, Dec 4, for our final seminar of the fall semester! We’re thrilled to host Haily Merritt (@h-merritt.bsky.social), who will share her research on how social connections shape the brain through a complex-systems lens, as well as insights into multidisciplinary scholarship.
- Join us this week on Thursday, Nov. 6, for our second seminar series of the fall semester! We are excited for Louis Boucherie to present his work on the effect of geographical constraints on human mobility.
- Happening soon, we hope to see you there!

- We’re excited to announce the line-up for our fall seminar series! We have three awesome speakers who will share their research and perspectives on the craft of science.
- If you’ve never been to a NetPlace seminar before, here’s how it works. The speaker gives a 20-25 minute talk about their work, with time for Q+A. Next, it’s time to switch gears.

- Reposted by NetPlaceIf you are at #NetSci25, join us at 1pm for our @netplace.bsky.social panel on the topic of "Science as a craft: Balancing career and skill progression", with panelists @asteixeira.bsky.social, @maximelca.bsky.social and @captainkirk1041.bsky.social
- 🔔 NEW at netsci2025! Ready to Gotta Match Them All? NetPlace’s Poster Matching Game turns the poster hall into a live graph hunt—perfect for meeting fellow researchers. 👀
- How it works: every badge hides a tiny graph, and every poster has one too. Your mission: spot posters & people whose graphs are isomorphic to yours—same structure, different labels. 🕵️♀️✨
- 🎉 Rounding out our panel, please welcome Alec Kirkley @captainkirk1041.bsky.social! Alec is an Assistant Professor at HKU, interested in complex networks and statistical physics. He works on developing new methods, drawing on ideas from information theory, Bayesian inference and machine learning.
