Trying my best to capture what Carl left with us in response to the last question he got: "The goal must be to maintain the integrity of science by acknowledging that no progress in science and technology is made without the foundational work in the humanities and social sciences"

Hard to express how excited I am that we have @carlbergstrom.com over here for a keynote talk at #CCCSS2026 And the topic couldn't be more important & timely to New Zealand as the country is seeking direction for how the research, science and innovation system may (or should?) work in the future

Probably should do the thing: #CCCSS2026 /cc @tepunahamatatini.bsky.social

Not everyone was around when we scrambled together a photo of #NetSciX2026 attendees, but we managed to find a fair share of people during the coffee break. What a privilege it was to host this community here in Aotearoa New Zealand.

Last keynote of #NetSciX2026: Claire Postlethwaite on networks in phase space.

Lightning talks at #NetSciX2026 to bring the energy right up before the conference dinner tonight.

Day 2 of #NetSciX2026 and the weather is no worse than yesterday. We're kicking off the main conference programme this morning with an exciting keynote talk by @eliassi.bsky.social on hypergraphs.

At the end of the school day, we are kicking off the main #NetSciX2026 conference with a panel discussion on the stress field between isolation and belonging in network science, organized by the @netplace.bsky.social community.

The first day of the NetSciX conference is always the network science school day. If you want to know what our school speakers are going to talk about, have a look at the abstracts of their talks: netscix2026.github.io#abstracts #NetSciX2026

Biology isn’t tidy. Data about genes, proteins, and metabolites is enormous, incomplete, and constantly changing — yet many models still assume everything is fixed and error-free. That’s not reality 🧪🧵

Capital City Complex Systems Symposium 2026 The Capital City Complex Systems Symposium 2026 explores cutting-edge knowledge of complex systems & complexity & how this knowledge is used to drive system change.

So excited to be visiting Aotearoa New Zealand in February for the Capitol City Complex Systems Symposium 2026 (with side trips to Otago, Canterbury, and U. Auckland).
