The NEtwoRks, Data, and Society (NERDS) group, founded in 2019, is researching network and data science applications to social systems at ITU Copenhagen, Data Science Section. NERDS consists of interdisciplinary researchers who focus on quantitative projects at the boundary of network science, data science, AI, and computational social science, including science of science, social networks and dynamics, multiplex networks, science of success, urban sustainability, human mobility, data visualization, and fundamental questions in complex systems. We are Research Environment of the Year 2022.
