| The Advanced Networks PDW allows researchers who are currently engaged in social network research, or who have specific plans to incorporate social network concepts into existing streams of research, to interact with one another and with more senior social network researchers. The goal of the PDW is to facilitate interaction among researchers engaged in network research through the use of small group roundtables. In addition, we will have remarks and presentations on the future of the field by senior researchers in a plenary format, followed by introductory workshops on the use ERGM models for participants interested in this methodological innovation. |
