Inaugural Research Institute for the Science of Socio-Technical Systems

I've been talking a lot recently to colleagues in the social sciences, following a workshop on virtual organizations that I ran for NSF with Carl Kesselman, Tom Finholt, and Jonathan Cummings. If I may say so myself, it was a great meeting--certainly not the "same old" discussions (at least from my perspective). The Building Effective Virtual Organizations (BEVO) workshop is a next step in this process.

Co-organizer Tom Finholt now points me at the Inaugural Research Institute for the Science of Socio-Technical Systems, designed for graduate students and new faculty, which sounds like a lot of fun.
