Santo Fortunato is a research scientist at the Complex Networks Lagrange Laboratory of the Institute for Scientific Interchange (ISI) in Turin, Italy. He started working on percolation theory and its possible applications to lattice gauge theories and phenomenology of heavy ion collisions. From February 2005 to January 2007 he was postdoctoral research associate at the School of Informatics of Indiana University in Bloomington (Indiana, USA), working in the Complex Systems Group led by Prof. Alessandro Vespignani. During this stay at IU, he worked on several problems, from general theory of complex networks to the study of information and biological networks, to social dynamics.
