Following the successful tradition of previous venues, 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.
We invite you to submit a proposal for a satellite symposium including Title, Topic (brief summary of 1–2 pages) and Format (number of speakers, invited vs. contributed, number of participants, length, preliminary program), and a preliminary list of speakers (also indicating whether they have been contacted and/or whether they have accepted). Submit proposals (single PDF File) by email to: .
Satellite Symposia will be held on June 19 and 20, 2017. Rooms will have basic projection and audio equipment. Rooms will be available from 8am-1pm for morning sessions and 1pm-6pm for afternoon sessions. Rooms of different sizes are available, so for planning purposes, we would appreciate an estimate of your attendance. Satellite organizers will be responsible for all aspects of the symposium including registration for the symposium. Coffee service will be provided. Lunch will be not provided.
All satellite symposia will be listed in the NetSci2017 Booklet as well as linked and advertised on the conference website.
Selection of Satellite Meeting Proposals will be performed by the Scientific Committee of NetSci2017 and notices will be sent out by January 15, 2017. In order to optimize Satellite Symposia in terms of scientific topics, visibility and interactions, the Satellite Committee will reserve the option of merging selected proposals that focus on similar topics.
If you have any questions or would like feedback, please, do not hesitate to contact Drs. Reka Albert or Filippo Radicchi, Chairs of Satellite Symposia of NetSci 2017, via email at: .
