It emerged from the Information Visualization Lab at IU that focused on the analysis and visualization of data since 1999.[1] With the advent of CNS, the mission was broadened from providing a research lab to building an entity that would advance datasets, tools, and services for the study of biomedical, social and behavioral science, physics, and other networks. A specific focus of CNS is research on the structure and evolution of science and technology (S&T) and the communication of results via science maps. The Center organizes international workshops and conferences, promotes network science and visualization at national and international initiatives, organizes and finances a weekly talk series on Network Science, holds an annual open house, hosts about 20 national and international visitors each year, and teaches regular workshops on its infrastructure and tools.[2] CNS is also the creative and administrative home of Mapping Science, an international science mapping exhibit. The collection features leading examples of knowledge domain mapping, novel location-based cartographies, data visualizations, and science-inspired art, all created by experts from around the globe.[3] One of the Center’s primary contributions is research and development of data and information visualization tools. Among these are included: the Cyberinfrastructure Shell (CIShell), the [https://sci2.cns.iu.edu/user/index.php Science of Science (Sci2) Tool], the Network Workbench, the Scholarly Database, the [https://epic.cns.iu.edu EpiC Marketplace], MAPSustain, and others. In addition, CNS offers several courses at Indiana University on information visualization, structural data mining and modeling, user interface design, and human-computer interaction.[4] In January 2013, CNS offered one of the first massive open online courses (MOOC) at Indiana University.[5] This initial course, entitled [https://web.archive.org/web/20151219195120/http://ivmooc.cns.iu.edu/ Information Visualization MOOC (or IVMOOC)], attracted visitors from over 100 countries. Since then, the course has been offered yearly and there are plans for additional iterations in the future. The following year, the course spawned a companion text, Visual Insights, published by The MIT Press.[6] References1. ^{{Cite web|title = "Our History" - CNS Center Website|url = http://cns.iu.edu/history.html|website = |accessdate = 2015-09-08}} 2. ^{{Cite web|title = "Our Mission" - CNS Center Website|url = http://cns.iu.edu/mission.html|website = |accessdate = 2015-09-08}} 3. ^{{Cite web|title = "What is a Science Map" Places & Spaces: Mapping Science Website|url = http://scimaps.org/what_is_a_science_map.html|website = |accessdate = 2015-09-08}} 4. ^{{Cite web|title = "IU Courses" - CNS Center Website|url = http://cns.iu.edu/courses.html|website = |accessdate = 2015-09-08}} 5. ^{{Cite web|title = "Information Visualization MOOC to Launch 1/22/13" - SOIC News|url = http://www.soic.indiana.edu/news/story.html?story=Information-Visualization-MOOC-Launch-22-13|website = |accessdate = 2015-09-08}} 6. ^{{Cite web|title = Börner, Katy, and David E.
