Ladies and Gentlemen, @ceu-dnds.bsky.social at @ccs2025.bsky.social #CCS2025

It was a great pleasure to chair the 7th edition of the Complex Systems for the Most Vulnerable #CCS2025 satellite: a huge thank you to all our brilliant speakers (both invited and contributed!) for sharing their work and making it such a success!

Proud supervisor moment: full room today for @claraeminente.bsky.social's presentation at the #CCS2025 Computational Social Science satellite on the role of social circles and social media on the perception of racial minorities. No preprint yet (work in progress), but come talk to us if interested!

It's always a pleasure to participate in the Computational Social Science satellite at @css-conference.bsky.social, thanks for having me!

Are digital traces giving us a biased view of polarization? 🤔

New paper by Yijing Chen, @elisaomodei.bsky.social & co-authors shows that APIs capturing only visible engagement (💬 YouTube comments) may suggest stronger segregation than less visible forms (▶️ views).

Migration is shaping the future of our societies — but how can research help shape migration policy?
Last week, the #HumanMigration research group led by @rafaelprietocuriel.bsky.social hosted a three-part event series at the Complexity Science Hub to explore this pressing question.
