Based on the success of first two events in 2014 and 2015 we have decided to continue to organize a follow-up event: we are delighted to announce that the 3rd CSS Winter Symposium will take place in Cologne on November 30th and December 1st, 2016.
The CSS Winter Symposium 2016 will be a two-day event consisting of:
- an exciting program featuring a series of invited talks that will provide different perspectives on current advances and limitations of computational social science,
- an open call for contributed posters and presentations that will provide opportunities for computational social scientists to present and discuss their own work,
- plenty of possibilities for interdisciplinary networking including an evening event at the famous Cologne Christmas markets [how to get there].
