Academic Achievements
- Research has been successfully applied to several societal challenges in funded research projects, including School Segregation, Slum Growth, Crowd Dynamics, Mental Health, and Transportation.
Research Experience
- Currently an Associate Professor at the University of Amsterdam, leading the Computational Science Lab (Informatics Institute). Also a principal investigator for complexity at the Institute for Advanced Study. Previously an Assistant Professor at Nanyang Technological University (NTU) Singapore.
Education
- PhD in Adaptive Optimistic Simulation of Multi-Agent Systems from the University of Nottingham; Joint Honours Computer Science/Artificial Intelligence degree from Edinburgh University.
Background
- Research interests: Using and developing computational techniques to understand human or social complex systems. The primary method is agent-based models for reasoning about human complex systems. Research agenda focuses on the development of computational models of artificial societies to understand and manage complex social processes.
