Inaugural Research Institute for the Science of Socio-Technical Systems
Currently attending (07.20-25) the Inaugural Research Institute for the Science of Socio-Technical Systems (CSST). This elaborate title actually reflects a very exciting endeavor to bring together senior and junior scholars in social informatics, STS and other information centered studies.
The primary organizers (Steve Sawyer and Tom Finholt) have assembled a spectacular cast of characters and we’ve been discussing everything from research and methods, to the development of institutionalized support and creating venues for our disparate research.
