Last week, we had the opportunity to participate in NetSci 2026 in Boston, one of the leading conferences in network science. The event also marked the 20th anniversary.
We had two presentations by Tamás Sebestyén and Erik Braun and two posters by Emese Braun and András Gyimesi, presenting our ongoing research. Beyond presenting, it was a great chance to engage with the international research community and receive valuable feedback.
We also had the pleasure of attending a reception at the Barabási Lab, which was a highlight of the trip and a great opportunity for informal discussions. An another memorable moment was a joint keynote by Albert-László Barabási and Réka Albert, where they reflected on their scientific journey: from random graph models to the 1999 scale-free network model that profoundly shaped the field and continues to influence how we think about complex systems today.
Overall, it was an inspiring experience from the keynotes and lightning talks to the thematic sessions and poster discussions. Thank you for the great atmosphere!
