Melanie Moses

External Professor





I study complex biological and information systems, the scaling properties of networks, and the general rules governing the acquisition of energy and information in complex adaptive systems. My focus is on the efficiency of growth and information exchange in biological and computational networks, and how the size and topology of networks determine emergent system behavior. I draw insights, tools and approaches from different disciplines in an effort to find unifying principles in the natural world.
