Special Issue -- Networks for Everyday Life

I’m glad to announce that we have launched a new special collection in Applied Network Science (Springer Open), co-edited with Mariana Macedo (Constructor University) and Ronaldo Menezes (University of Exeter).

The collection invites contributions — theory, methods, and applications — on how network science can help us understand and respond to fast-evolving challenges in health, urban mobility, education, politics, and other societal domains. The idea is to use networks as a lens onto the patterns of everyday life.

This special issue runs alongside NetSci 2026.

📅 Submission deadline: 30 November 2026
