Tina Eliassi-Rad - A master class in network thinking and the kind of life it makes

Origins Podcast with Ryan McGranaghan

Tina Eliassi-Rad is a network science pioneer, and an intrepid explorer of where network science shows up in our world and how we understand that. Her work, as her life, falls across network science, complexity, artificial intelligence, and commitments to democracy and equality, itself a constellation of experiences and literacies befitting our increasingly complex world.
