Me!

I am a researcher formed at Yachay Tech, International Centre of Theoretical Physics, and currently in OIST, Japan. My research is driven by the questions that define our reality:

How does consciousness rise from neurons? How does society emerge from interactions? How does life appear from particles? Here, I try to answer the questions that build the key parts of our nature.

● RESEARCH PAPER
Griffiths Phase Network

Chaotic Griffiths Phase

Criticality

Investigating how structural heterogeneity in neural maps allows the brain to operate in a "Griffiths Phase"β€”an extended region of criticality that enhances robustness and dynamic range.

Cultural Oscillations

Social Dynamics Model

A data-driven modification of the Axelrod model. By introducing periodic external fields, we simulate how collective attention shifts and oscillates in digital ecosystems like Google Trends.
