Science of Science Chicago: January 2018 Meeting on Monday, January 8, 2018
About:
The Science of Science meetings at Northwestern's Medical Campus are for people who are interested in research on Science of Science in the Chicago area. We hope to create a shared regular meeting place for scientific exchange and discussion across different universities, and university campuses, and different methodological approaches, and scientific backgrounds.
Whether you do active research on Science of Science or are just interested in that area, please feel welcome. Science of Science is a young discipline whose perspectives may be sociological, economic, data-scientific, bibliometric, network-scientific, genomic, or historic.
