About me

I obtained my master degree and PhD in Theoretical Physics at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL) respectively in 2016 and 2020. From Feb.2022 to Oct.2024, I was a Director's Postdoc Fellow at the Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) and also affiliated with the Center for Nonlinear Studies (CNLS). I am currently a Postdoctoral Research Fellow in the Living Systems Institute at the University of Exeter. My research focuses on complex network-coupled dynamical systems and the identification of their local/global vulnerabilities against external perturbations. I also recently developed methods for inferring coupling network from time-series and for locating line and node disturbances in diffusively coupled agents.
