We are restarting the @wins-society.bsky.social book club!
The first edition was super fun, so let’s do it again :)
On October 8 we will present the first book and plan for the rest of the semester! See you there 🙌🏼
Thank you @manlius.bsky.social for having me in Padova and for everybody attending and all the exciting questions!
Thank you LASIGE for having me again, it was a blast being back and seeing so many familiar faces! The questions were also sharp and super timely.
Super grateful 🙌🏼
I’ve been lucky enough to have two packed rooms (University of Padova and University of Lisbon) to listen about different branches of my work, reviving Spanning Edge Betweenness, Bacterial Populations and Evolution, Evolutionary Game Theory and Predictive Signed Networks w/ real data! Thank you 🙌🏼
In just about a week, the season's first NetSci Colloquium will happen. And we're starting with a bang . . . with none other than Iain Couzin talking about Collective Behavior in Animal Groups. September 24, 10 AM ET. Register here to get a Zoom link: iu.zoom.us/webinar/regi...
Next Tuesday in Padova!
Thank you @manlius.bsky.social for having me! Looking forward to it!
For those in Portugal, I’ll be giving a talk next Thursday at LASIGE, Informática em Ciências , Faculdade de Ciências da Universidade de Lisboa
Looking forward to seeing colleagues and previous students!
