Dr. Louis M. Shekhtman

I am a postdoctoral researcher in network science and the Science of Success at the Barabasi Lab. My research is interdisciplinary in nature, and is primarily focused on social networks. I have also carried out work related to public health, blockchain, infrastructure networks, viral dynamics, financial networks, and other areas.

Background

I completed my undergraduate degree at Northwestern University in Physics and Integrated Science in 2013. I then moved to Israel to do a Ph.D. at Bar-Ilan University under Prof. Shlomo Havlin, which I was awarded in 2020. Since Sep. 2019 I have been with Prof. Albert-Laszlo Barabasi at Northeastern University carrying out postdoctoral research.
