My research

Statistical and mathematical modelling in Psychology, with a focus on networks as dynamical systems.

IAS Fellowship

The main question I would like to answer is how to properly model polarisation and segregation (using physics-based models) in a single model. My view on such sociophysics modelling that is somewhat different than most, is that, in addition to properly describing the social behaviour, the model should inform us about how we can intervene to allow for change. For that I think that the psychological component should be more prominently built in the sociophysics models.
