Biography
Lorenzo Zino is an Assistant Professor with the Department of Electronics and Telecommunications at Politecnico di Torino (Turin, Italy), since 2022. He received the BS and MS in Mathematical Engineering from Politecnico di Torino, Torino, Italy, in 2012 and 2014, respectively, and the PhD in Pure and Applied Mathematics (with honors) from Politecnico di Torino and Università di Torino (joint doctorate program), in 2018. He was a Research Fellow at Politecnico di Torino (2018-19) and the University of Groningen (2019-22) and a Visiting Research Assistant at New York University Tandon School of Engineering (2017-18 and 2019). His current research interests include modeling, analysis, and control of dynamics over complex networks, applied probability, network analysis, and game theory. He authored or coauthored more than 60 international scientific publications including more than 40 papers in scientific journals. He is Associate Editor of the Journal of Computational Science, and member of the CEB for the IEEE CSS and the EUCA.
