Introduction:
| |
Humans are structured in social networks which affect society in many ways: the functioning of free markets, contagion of diseases, communication patterns or political choices. The data collected from online communications such as Twitter or Facebook and cell phone calls has opened a new framework to the understanding of human behavior through the social networks in which individuals are embedded. However network structure is not unique to humans but common to all species in Nature. This workshop aims to bring together mathematicians and scientists of ecology, economics and social sciences so that they better understand the challenges faced by each discipline and how to best collaborate. |
