Summary

All fields of science benefit from gathering and analyzing network data. This chapter summarizes a small portion of the ways networks are found in research fields thanks to increasing volumes of data and the computing resources needed to work with that data. Epidemiology, dynamical systems, materials science, and many more fields than we can discuss here, use networks and network data. Well encounter many more examples during the rest of this book.
