معرفی
Cristián Huepe is an Adjunct Professor at Northwestern University's Engineering Sciences and Applied Mathematics (ESAM) department and an External Faculty member at the Northwestern Institute on Complex Systems (NICO). He also serves as a Co-Director and Head Researcher at the Social Listening Lab (SoL-UC) in Chile, and as an External Researcher at Beijing Normal University's School of Systems Science. His research focuses on complex systems, nonequilibrium dynamics, and quantitative social sciences, with emphasis on collective motion, active matter, and social dynamics.
Education:
- Ph.D. in Physics, University of Paris, École Normale Supérieure (1999)
- DEA in Astrophysics, University of Paris (1995)
- B.S. in Physics, Universidad de Chile (1993)
Research Interests: Current work spans complex systems, self-organization, active matter, swarm robotics, non-equilibrium physics, and interdisciplinary applications like music and post-truth dynamics. Past research included Bose-Einstein condensation and nonlinear dynamics.
His recent articles explore emergent phenomena in active matter systems, social network influences on vaccination attitudes, and modular hierarchical structures in biological systems. Notable recognition includes the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation's CONNECT Residence Award.
Lab Collaborations: CHuepeLabs, a global collaborative network, integrates researchers from Northwestern University, Beijing Normal University, Middle East Technical University (Turkey), and UC Chile. The lab advances interdisciplinary studies in complex systems and social listening technologies.
