The North American Social Networks (NASN) Conference is a regional conference of the International Network for Social Network Analysis (INSNA). The conference provides an interdisciplinary venue for social scientists, mathematicians, computer scientists, ethnologists, epidemiologists, organizational theorists, public health experts, and others to present current work in the area of social networks.

NASA is co-organized by the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory, and the Indiana University Network Science Institute.
