  8. Seminars & Colloquia
Saturday, October 12, 2013
4:00 AM
170 & 182 Dennison Building

Professor Mark Newman will talk about ways in which physicists are contributing to our understanding of networks, such as social networks and computer networks, and how ideas from physics can help us understand things like the "six degrees of separation" and how to prevent or slow the spread of disease.

Detailed Information
All talks are free and refreshments will be served. Visitor parking for the seminars (Central Campus) is across the street from the Dennison Building in the U-M Church Street structure. There is a $2.00 parking charge implemented by U-M Parking Services.
