Call for Satellites

Following the successful tradition of previous venues, NetSci 2018 will host several Satellite Symposia on June 11 and 12 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.

Organizers of a Satellite will be given 1 fully-waived registration fee for NetSci 2018 that could be used to cover the participation of either an invited speaker to the satellite or for any other participant/organizer.
