My research focuses on the integration of methods of statistical physics, nonlinear dynamics and network theory to characterize and model complex systems.
I am a Researcher Co-Investigator on the RAVEN project, which aims at gaining insights into the resilience, adaptability and vulnerability of energy networks. I joined QMUL in January 2008 to work on manmade networks under the FP6 project Manmade. Prior to that, I was a Researcher Co-Investigator on an EPSRC Novel Computation consortium, EPSRC EP/C513703/1, and from 2005 to 2007 I was a Senior Research Fellow at UCL working on Geo-Information Dynamics. I did my PhD in Physics (2001) at Instituto Superior Técnico, Lisbon, where I worked with Profs Rui Vilela Mendes and João Seixas.
I am one of the initiators of Living Science (with Luis Bettencourt, Dirk Helbing, Sergi Lozano and Jörg Reichardt).
