Overview

In recent years there has been an explosion of network data. The combination of an increasingly pervasive interest in scientific analysis at a systems level and the ever-growing capabilities for high throughput data collection in various fields has fueled this trend. Researchers from biology and bioinformatics to physics, from computer science to the information sciences, and from economics to sociology are more and more engaged in the collection and statistical analysis of data from a network-centric perspective. Accordingly, the contributions to statistical methods and modeling in this area have come from a similarly broad spectrum of areas, often independently of each other. This program aims to bring experts together, and to facilitate the exchange of knowledge across the pre- existing boundaries between those disciplines that play a role in what is coming to be called "network science".
