Oriol Artime
   

Trained as a physicist at Univ. of Barcelona, I moved to IFISC (Mallorca) to pursue a PhD on complex systems. I use tools from network theory, statistical physics and stochastic processes to better understand complex systems in general, and models of social dynamics in particular.

Theoretical physicist by training, I investigate multilayer networks as reliable frameworks for studying complex systems, from human brain to society. I am also interested in quantum gravity.

      Giacomo Barzon
   

I got my MSc in Physics of Data at the University of Padova and I am currently pursuing a PhD in Neuroscience at the Padova Neuroscience Center. My main interests regard the study of the brain as an emblematic empirical complex system, using network structure and biologically inspired models of neural dynamics to investigate brain criticality and controllability, thanks to computational simulations and analytical tools mostly from statistical mechanics.

Clara Eminente
   

After a BSc in Physics, I moved from Rome to Padua and I am currently a MSc student in Physics Of Data, joining the Lab for my master thesis. My main interest is the application of physics of complex systems' methods and tools to collective behaviours, with particular focus on information dynamics.

      Anna Bertani
   

I got my BSc in Sociology and I am currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Data Science at the University of Trento. I would define myself as an enthusiastic student interested in analyzing social dynamics through data and network science. I am joining the Lab as an intern in order to study the misinformation and collective attention on social media platforms.
