Our fall seminar series begins this Thursday, Oct. 2 (4pm UTC+1/11am EDT) with a talk by Elena Candellone. She’ll be speaking about “Mapping extreme users through negative ties in online social interactions”, followed by a discussion on “the joy of planning scientific events”.
At NetPlace, we try to build spaces for junior researchers to come together to learn from each other and develop their craft. Our seminar series does just this, integrating the sharing of scientific knowledge and discussion about the process of science. We hope Ph.D. students from complex systems, network science, and interdisciplinary research in general will join us for a monthly talk and discussion. Elena Candellone (Thursday, Oct. 2) Louis Boucherie (Thursday, Nov. 6) Haily Merritt (Thursday, Dec. 4)
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 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
As early-career researchers, we often face the challenge of deciding how to allocate our limited time and energy, whether it is developing new skills, building our networks, or setting a research direction, all under the pressure to publish.
🚀 After a series of successful panels in previous years, NetPlace returns to @netsciconf.bsky.social in Maastricht with:

New one out! We look at higher-order novelties: first-time combinations of known elements in empirical sequences of exploration processes. Similar standard discovery rates can diverge at higher (Heaps') orders and a dynamic RW network model can capture these patterns.

We didn’t know we would come this far when we started, but here we are, growing more and more. And a bigger organization needs a better website!
It took us a lot of hard work, but we have made it: netplace.site
We are thrilled to announce the merger of two key organizations supporting early-career researchers in network science: SYNS (Society of Young Network Scientists) and NetPLACE (Networks, PhD Life, and Complexity). Together, we are now NetPlace!
🔥 Hey hey! Exciting seminar announcement! This week we are very happy to have Amahury JL Diaz @amahury0 discussing chemical automata as energy-efficient approaches for unconventional computing.

Hello world!
We have created a starter pack to showcase the work of early career researchers in complex systems.
The list is still under development! If you feel like you might fit in this category, let us know in the comments and we will add you :)

Has anyone else done other starter packs similar to this that we could be interested in advertising to follow the trend?
