Mattia Radice is a research fellow at the University of Pisa. After obtaining a Master’s degree and a PhD in Physics at the University of Insubria in Varese, where he stayed for one year as a postdoctoral researcher, he worked as a research fellow at the Max Planck Institute for the Physics of Complex Systems in Dresden and the University of Bologna.
His research is centred on the study of complex systems, using tools from statistical physics and the theory of stochastic processes. He is particularly interested in the theoretical and numerical study of diffusion processes, non-homogeneous random walks and extreme events. His scientific work combines analytical tools and numerical simulations to investigate anomalous diffusion, heterogeneous systems and non-linear dynamics, often with interdisciplinary applications ranging from mathematical physics to the modelling of complex time series.
He is currently working on a project that aims to analyse the properties of physiological time series interpreted as the orbits of dynamical systems that exhibit unpredictable behaviour. The project focuses on studying recurrence properties and the statistics of extreme events.
