Description |
|
| The National Institute for Mathematical and Biological Synthesis (NIMBioS) is now accepting applications for its Tutorial, "Network Modeling," to be held February 4-6, 2019, at NIMBioS. Objectives: This tutorial aims to introduce faculty, post-docs & graduate students to the topic of complex networks. The field has grown tremendously over the last 20 years and network science has found numerous applications to fields such as biology, ecology, social sciences, physical sciences, computer science, technology, and urban planning. The tutorial will review in detail the main ideas and methods in network science with emphasis on both conceptual aspects and real-world applications. Hands-on activities will help the audience familiarize themselves with practical ways to potentially incorporate network analysis in their own research. No prior knowledge of networks or programming is required. Location: NIMBioS at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville Co-Organizers: Nina Fefferman , Ecology & Evolutionary Biology, Univ. of Tennessee; Lazaros Gallos, DIMACS, Rutgers Univ.; Gonzalo Suarez, Ecology & Evolutionary Biology, Univ. of Tennessee For more information about the tutorial and a link to the online application form, go to http://www.nimbios.org/tutorials/TT_networks Participation in NIMBioS tutorials is by application only. Individuals with a strong interest in the topic are encouraged to apply, and successful applicants will be notified within two weeks after the application deadline. Limited travel support is available for those with a demonstrated need. Application deadline: November 18, 2018 The National Institute for Mathematical and Biological Synthesis (NIMBioS) (http://www.nimbios.org) brings together researchers from around the world to collaborate across disciplinary boundaries to investigate solutions to basic and applied problems in the life sciences. NIMBioS is supported by the National Science Foundation, with additional support from The University of Tennessee, Knoxville. |
