Brennan Klein is interested in developing tools and theory for characterizing dynamics, structure, and scale in networks, but also in creating and analyzing large-scale datasets that reveal inequalities in the U.S., from epidemics to mass incarceration. #ComplexNetworks2025

Kicking off the machine learning session, @moritzlaber.bsky.social studies how incorporating prior knowledge about network dynamical systems into neural ODEs influences sample efficiency, as well as the correlation between network structure and performance. #NetSci2025

🚨 The Colorado Index of Complex Networks (icon.colorado.edu) is reborn! ICON 2.0 indexes 699 distinct research-quality network data sets, classified into 6 domains (Social, Biological, Information, Economic, Technology, Transportation) and 53 subdomains /1 #networkscience
Screenshot of the Index of Complex networks (icon.colorado.edu) website, showing histograms of the 699 network data sets it indexes, sizes of the networks, and their representation across subdomains. It's a nice, slick interface.

Other academics: do you ever sneak easter eggs into your published papers? (particular words, phrasings, things in images or plots, references, etc.) If so, what are some of your personal favorites? (I don't do it with every paper, but gosh, it's a fun part of being a professional scientist!)

Last spring, Washington state passed a bill banning commercial octopus farming. Today, we (myself and 99 others, led by Jennifer Jacquet, Becca Franks, Peter Godfrey-Smith, and Walter Sanchez-Suarez) have a letter in Science supporting the US OCTOPUS Act, which would do the same nationwide.

Zotero 7 just dropped. I've been using the beta for several months and it's absolutely fantastic. And it restores an early feature of Zotero that went missing over a decade ago: the ability to annotate snapshots of web pages and add those annotations to your notes.
