This is a research project that I have been working on to study the Chilean astronomical and astrophysics community. The research aims to understand the social and cognitive processes underlying the formation of the community using multilayer networks to enlighten the patterns of relationships among researchers.
Funding from 2017-2021: CONICYT PFCHA/DOCTORADO BECAS CHILE/2017 – 72180242.
Funding from 2017: Funding for undertaking the project “Professional Advice for Lifting Information from Key Actors and Making a Prospective Analysis of Astroinformatics” for the Scientific Council of the Astro-Informatic program of the Minister of Economy, funded by the Chilean Association of Information and Technology Companies A.G.
