Is this for you?

We are running a 3-day conference on 'Threshold Networks' from July 22-24 2019.

By 'Threshold' we mean node dynamics or interactions described by simple, yet possibly non-smooth or discontinuous, processes. Our aim is to bring together a community of people interested in both networks and dynamics, with an eye to both mathematical tractability and applications to biology, engineering, physics, and the social sciences.

In addition, we are having a tutorial day on the 21st, aimed at more junior conference attendees.

Poster presentations

We are now accepting abstracts for poster presentations at ThresholdNetworks2019@nottingham.ac.uk until the 24th of May.

(Notification of acceptance: 1st June.)
