BSA Distinguished Lecture

"Network Science: From the Web to human diseases"

Presented by Albert-Laszlo Barabasi, Northeastern University

Monday, June 9, 2008, 4:00 pm — Berkner Hall Auditorium

Systems as diverse as the world wide web, Internet or the cell are described by highly interconnected networks with amazingly complex topology. Recent studies indicate that the evolution of these complex networks is governed by simple but generic laws, resulting in apparently universal architectural features. I will discuss this amazing order characterizing our interconnected work, and its implications to how we perceive the impact on communications and medicine, as well as touch upon the next challenge of network research, going beyond the structure and quantifying the dynamics of interconnected systems.

Hosted by: Peter Wanderer
