Why Data Science matters, but Computational Science matters more > De Dataloog
There are fundamental limits of solely data usage with ML and computational science may extend results of data science in specific cases. Data is dead, computational science lives.
🔺 The emergence of consensus: a 10-page review / introduction to micro-macro connection, role of social networks, social contagion, committed minorities, etc. With models and empirical results.

🧰 Some materials (homework assignments, quizzes, midterm, a few other things) from the spring 2018 edition of my undergraduate course on networks: https://t.co/zd8XcsaVEM
I discuss the development, evolution, & philosophy of my course in this book chapter: https://t.co/tyyhBcrlPG
Over a period of several years, I designed and taught an undergraduate course on networks. The course, which I first taught in the Mathematical Institute at the University of Oxford, was initially a masters-level course. It then evolved into a course for both undergraduate and graduate students, and it now also exists in the form of an advanced undergraduate course at UCLA. In this article, I discuss my networks course, its evolution, and my experiences teaching it. I hope to help encourage people, especially those in mathematics and mathematical-science departments, to design and teach introductory courses in network analysis. Such courses complement existing courses in graph theory and other subjects, and they give a chance to introduce students to state-of-the-art topics that apply ideas from graph theory, probability, dynamical systems, and other important subjects in fascinating ways. Group projects are particularly beneficial for courses on network analysis, as they take advantage of the subject’s accessibility, provide a valuable gateway for undergraduates to conduct research in (both theoretical and applied) mathematics, and open the door to longer-term research projects.

25th Annual IASBS Meeting on Condensed Matter Physics
June 13-14, 2019 (23-24 Khordad 1398)
The aim of this meeting is to bring together experimental and theoretical scientists in the field of condensed matter physics to present their recent results and to make an atmosphere for discussion. Moreover it is a good opportunity for young researchers and students to gain experience by joining this community.
Deadline for registration and paper submission:
March 19, 2019 (28 Esfand, 1397)

Santa Fe Institute is launching a new Translational Fellows program. The program targets early career PhDs who are interested in pursuing a more applied career path. The goal is to help these individuals become leaders in the application of complexity beyond academia. During their two years at SFI, Translational Fellows will study complexity and work to help foster the adoption of complexity insights in the broader world. For a program denoscription and application requirements see: santafe.edu/tfapply.
We would greatly appreciate your help forwarding this opportunity to anyone in your network who might be interested, or who might know interested people. Please contact translational@santafe.edu with any questions.
Thank you,
The Complexity Explorer Team and The Santa Fe Institute
