Abstract The Symposium on Human Dynamics Research, first organized at the 2015 AAG Meeting in Chicago, celebrated its 10th anniversary at the 2024 AAG Meeting in Honolulu, marking a decade of transformative advancements in the field. Over the past decade, the focus of human dynamics research has shifted from traditional spatial-temporal analyses to sophisticated modeling of human behavior in a hybrid physical-virtual world. This evolving field now examines the intricate interdependencies between physical and digital environments, addressing critical issues such as urban resilience, public health, social equity, and community sustainability. The symposium emphasized the growing importance of interdisciplinary collaboration, advanced data-driven analytical platforms, and innovative theoretical frameworks to better understand human interactions across these spaces. As human dynamics continue to shape global urban systems, these advancements are pivotal for future research and real-world problem-solving, offering novel insights into the interconnectedness of mobility, technology, and societal well-being in a rapidly changing world.
