Profile My work focuses on quantitative understanding of social systems based on massive data sets. I am a physicist by training, but also well-read in the social science literature. I develop and apply methods from the physics of complex systems, network science, and statistical analysis to social systems. In the scientific community I am renown for studies about social complex systems, and about theory and applications of network science. I have pioneered breakthrough publications in top-tier journals like Nature, Science, PNAS, Nature Physics, which have received extensive attention from the scientific community. I am also routinely invited to the leading conferences of Data Science, Network Science, and Computational Social Science, and I review for journals like Nature and Science, and for major funding bodies. Research keywords: Network Science, Data Science, Science of Science, Complex Systems, Computa- tional Social Science.

Many national awards and fellowships during the grad and undergrad studies, that financed my studies, amounting to an equivalent of ∼e250,000. 1The Scuola Superiore di Catania (SSC) is a special structure for higher education of the University of Catania, characterized by selective admission tests and strict performance requirements. It was instituted to develop the skills of young students, through additional classes and beforehand research initiation. Every student at SSC is a student at the University of Catania at the same time. Among other requirements, a SSC student has to have the highest marks in all disciplines and has to defend an additional final project thesis.
