I am a physicist with a strong interest in applied sciences. My research deals with Complex Networks, Data Science and their application to the study and modeling of social and urban systems.
I am an Associate Professor in the Network Science Institute at Northeastern University London and Affiliated Faculty in the Department of Physics at Northeastern University.
Previously, I have been a James S. McDonnell Foundation Postdoctoral Fellow at the Department of Network and Data Science, CEU. I received my PhD from the School of Mathematical Sciences at Queen Mary University of London, where I worked within the Complex Systems and Networks Research Group under the supervision of Vito Latora. I have held research positions at the Centre de Physique Théorique of Aix-Marseille University, at the Urban Dynamics Lab of the Centre for Advanced Spatial Analysis (CASA), UCL, at The Alan Turing Institute (London), and at the ISI Foundation in Turin. I also worked as a Data Science Intern at UN Universal Postal Union in Bern.
