[Air-L] Social Computing, Behavioral Modeling, & Prediction conference special isocial science track

[Sun-Ki Chai]

Dear Colleagues,

*Social Computing, Behavioral Modeling, & Prediction (SBP-BRiMS'17) *is 
an annual interdisciplinary conference devoted to promoting the study of 
social phenomena within the computer and information sciences, currently 
in its 10th year.  With grant funding for social scientists increasingly 
being pointed towards such research, it provides a great opportunity to 
learn about current and develop professional networks in this 
interdisciplinary area.  The conference will be held on July 5-8 in 
Washington, D.C. at The George Washington University.

We are making an effort to encourage the participation of more social 
scientists and other non-CISE scholars by making use of 
generous participant support grants we have received from from multiple 
agencies.  A_ll scholars from non-CISE fields with accepted 2-page 
extended abstracts will be reimbursed for their registration costs, and 
may be eligible for additional travel support depending on need and 
available resources.  Abstracts will be accepted up till June 12 under a 
special disciplinary diversity track._  Participants in the conference 
will have the opportunity not only to familiarize themselves with work 
by leading scholars, but opportunities to develop technical skills via 
tutorial sessions and to meet with representatives of leading funding 
agencies.  For more information, please look at the attached special 
Call For Papers and check the conference website <http://sbp-brims.org/>

Sincerely,
