I am a statistical physicist, especially interested in complexity. I obtained my PhD from the Autonomous University of Barcelona in 2021. Currently, I work as a postdoctoral researcher at the CoBBS group in Rome. Here, we transfer our knowledge of traditional statistical physics to the study of collective motion in biological systems, such as bird flocks or midges swarms. In particular, I focus on understanding which interaction rules between individuals guide the dynamics of these collectives.
