We are aiming for CNWW to be held every other year, ODD years only. #CNWW2025 here we come! Networks, monastery life, and a vow of science!
(Random pictures from the archive of the Monastery.)
P.S. We are now also in the sky application as CNWW

"The Ising model celebrates a century of interdisciplinary contributions"
I studied the Ising model in my phd in statistical physics. It gave me concepts to talk with complexity folks in political science, psychology and more.
Any good Ising stories?

🚨New paper at npj Complexity🚨
Introducing a new approach to synergistic information that balances the trade-offs of the PID and the O-information...and which can be applied beyond information theory to other features of complex systems! 1/N

Caroline Buckee, final #NetSci2024 keynote, continues the conference theme of the importance of community and collaboration when tackling complex problems with our flawed error-prone tools.
Félicitations mon ami! Une belle grosse gang de chums fière de toi. @all_are
Have there been enough fleurs de lys at #NetSci2024 yet? Tellement fier!
