René Pfitzner (ETH Zurich) together with Petter Holme and his PhD student Fariba Karimi are organizing a network science summer school
"Network Factory 2013 - Networks, Information Science and Social Media"
to take place from 10th to 15th June 2013 (right after NetSci 2013 in Copenhagen) in the very south of Sweden.
The Summer School is targeted to MSc and PhD students interested in
the broad connections between Network Science and the Information
Sciences, with a focus on issues concerning social media. This one week
summer school is sponsored by NNNS (Nordic
Network of Network Scientists), allowing us to a) cover *all* expenses
for students from the nordic countries and b) a reduced participation
fee (covering accommodation and catering) of 500 EUR for non-nordic
participants. The total number of participants
is limited and there are still a few places left. Deadline for
registration is April 20th 2013.
Speakers at our summer school include: Ciro Cattuto, Sune Lehmann,
Alan Mislove, Juyong Park, Martin Rosvall and Katharina Zweig, (more to
be confirmed).
