I’m a Doctoral Researcher at the Computer Science Department of Aalto University 🇫🇮, working on problems in Network Science. Specifically, I’m interested in modeling pharmaceutical and non-pharmaceutical interventions for epidemics. I also have done some work on bridging the gap between the theory of temporal networks and non-equilibrium phase transition formalism. I have an MS in Physics of Complex Systems and a BS in Solid State Physics. I’m a science writer and write at sitpor.org (FA), where I am also the editor-in-chief. More about me here.
