The 9th edition of the Belgian Network Research Meeting (BENet) will be organised by the Complex Systems Institute at Ghent University (UGent). Due to SARS-CoV-2, the event will be shorter and held online (via Zoom) on November 12, 2020.

The purpose of this annual gathering is to foster communication among Belgian researchers employing network science on their work, regardless of their discipline: sociology, economics, communication, history, biology, physics, medicine, informatics, etc.

Contact Prof Luis Rocha for more information.

Registration

Registration is free. If you want to attend, register by sending an email to Dr Roma Siugzdaite romasiugzdaite@gmail.com by November 2, 2020.
