7th Northeast Regional Conference on Complex Systems (NERCCS-7); Potsdam New York; 20-22 March 2024

这项资助支持下一代复杂系统研究人员的发展，为研究生，博士后研究员和初级教师提供资金，前往2024年3月20日至22日在纽约波茨坦举行的第七届东北复杂系统区域会议（NERCCS-7）。NERCCS的目标是来自新英格兰、纽约州和选定的中大西洋地区大学的研究人员。与会者还包括来自美国、加拿大、墨西哥和欧洲的学术界和工业界的教师、研究人员和科学家。该活动通过主题演讲、研讨会、小组会议以及非正式讨论有关复杂系统和复杂网络的一系列科学主题的机会，在团结这些研究人员方面发挥了关键作用。重要的是，本次会议致力于通过研讨会和研讨会促进学生的教育、专业发展和职业发展，以增强他们的网络和求职/职业发展能力。会议促进了这些快速发展和趋势领域的持续进步。这笔赠款的重点是扩大第七届东北复杂系统区域会议的参与度和包容性。会议主题涵盖了复杂系统、动力系统和网络科学领域的现代快照。主题包括：复杂系统的理论基础；非线性动力学与混沌；系统理论;信息理论;系统科学;博弈论;决策理论;社会经济应用，如自组织、模式形成和集体行为；复杂网络的结构与动力学；复杂系统的可持续性和适应性；仿生系统;机器学习和进化计算；复杂系统的数据驱动方法；应用于人文，艺术，文学，历史和哲学方面的复杂系统；复杂的系统和教育。主办方克拉克森大学是一所R2大学，在本科和研究生阶段都强调STEM教育。会议的结果将在一个专门的网站上以及在《东北复杂系统杂志》的特刊上发表。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

This grant supports development of the next generation of complex systems researchers by providing funding for graduate students, post-doctoral fellows, and junior faculty to travel to the 7th Northeast Regional Conference on Complex Systems (NERCCS-7) in Potsdam, New York, 20-22 March 2024. NERCCS targets researchers from universities in New England, New York State, and selected Mid-Atlantic regions. Participants also include faculty, researchers, and scientists in both academia and industry from across the US, Canada, Mexico, and Europe. This event serves a critical role in uniting these researchers through keynotes, workshops, panel sessions, and opportunities for informal discussions on a range of scientific topics pertaining to complex systems and complex networks. Importantly, this conference strives to advance education, professional development, and careers for student participants through workshops and seminars to enhance their networking and job search /career advancement capabilities. The meeting fosters continuous advancements in these fast-marching and trending fields.This grant focuses on broadening participation and greater inclusivity at the 7th Northeast Regional Conference on Complex Systems. Conference themes encompass a modern snapshot across the fields of complex systems, dynamical systems, and network science. Topics include: theoretical foundations of complex systems; nonlinear dynamics and chaos; systems theory; information theory; systems science; game theory; decision theory; socio-economical applications such as self-organization, pattern formation, and collective behavior; structure and dynamics of complex networks; sustainability and adaptability of complex systems; bio-inspired systems; machine learning and evolutionary computation; data-driven approaches to complex systems; applications to the humanities, art, and literature, historical and philosophical aspects of complex systems; and complex systems and education. The host, Clarkson University, is an R2 University emphasizing STEM education at both undergraduate and graduate levels. The outcomes of the conference will be disseminated on a dedicated website as well as in a Special Issue of the Northeast Journal of Complex Systems.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
