<p class="MsoNormal"><b>ABOUT NETSCI 2017<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">NetSci 2017, the International School and
Conference on Network Science, will be held in Indianapolis,
Indiana from June 19 to 23, 2017. NetSci 2017 aims to bring
together leading researchers and practitioners working in the
emerging area of network science. The conference fosters
interdisciplinary communication and collaboration in network
science research across computer and information sciences,
physics, mathematics, statistics, the life sciences, neuroscience,
environmental sciences, social sciences, finance and business,
arts and design.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">NetSci 2017 is a combination of:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">- Satellite Symposia (June 19 & 20)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">- An International School for students and
non-experts (June 19 & 20)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">- A 3-day Conference (June 21-23) featuring
research in a wide range of topics and in different formats,
including keynote and invited talks, oral presentations, posters,
and lightning talks.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><b>SATELLITE SYMPOSIA: CALL FOR PROPOSALS<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Following the successful tradition of this
conference, NetSci 2017 will host several Satellite Symposia on
June 19 and 20 as precursors of the main Conference. These
satellite events are one-day or half-day meetings with a focus on
a specific topic of Network Science and its Applications. All
subjects are welcome, but we would specifically support proposals
on themes such as: Multilayer, Interdependent and/or Temporal
Networks, Critical Infrastructures, Financial Networks, Biological
Networks, Brain Networks, and Computational Social Sciences.
Details for proposals, due December 15, can be found here:

<p class="MsoNormal"><b>ERDÖS–RÉNYI PRIZE <o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The Erdös–Rényi Prize is awarded each year to a
selected young scientist (under 40 years old on the day of the
nomination deadline) for their achievements in research activities
in the area of network science, broadly construed. While the
achievements can be both theoretical and experimental, the prize
is aimed at emphasizing outstanding contributions relevant to the
interdisciplinary progress of network science. Candidate dossiers
are due March 1, 2017 and self-nominations are not accepted.
