OBJECTIVES:
NetSci is a truly interdisciplinary body, aiming to bring under one umbrella a wide variety of researchers and stakeholders with direct interest in network science, from physics to computer science, biology, social sciences, economics, and so on.
The main mission is to undertake the type of activities that would help the Network Science community thrive, such as organizing the yearly Network Science meeting, publishing, and working to attract funds for this effort.
NetSci is seeking nominations for the following awards and prizes:
Erdős-Rényi Prize
The Network Science Society, among whose missions it is to support the activity of outstanding young researchers in the area of network science, has established the Erdős–Rényi prize in the field of Network Science and its Applications.
Euler Award
The Euler Award will be granted for outstanding research discoveries in the field of network science, especially those that changed paradigms or assumptions. The award is for an important scientific contribution, not for the lifetime contributions of the nominee. Contributions may concern recent discoveries or past breakthroughs that are of relevance to current research in the field.
Service Award
The NetSci Outstanding Service Award will be granted for exceptional service to the Network Science Society. The award is for contributions that have sustained positive impact on activities of the society. Contributions may concern services provided by officers of the society, committee members, organizers of NetSci events, and advocates at large for the society.
Society Fellows
The Fellowship Program of the Network Science Society recognizes researchers who have made outstanding and significant contributions to network science research and to the community of network scientists. Elected nominees are named Fellows of the Network Science Society.
