Bio
Dylan Walker is an assistant professor of Information Systems at Boston University School of Management and a junior fellow of the Rafik B. Hariri Institute for Computing and Computational Science & Engineering. While he is a theoretical physicist by training, I apply mathematical and computation tools from statistical physics to large-scale empirical and data-oriented research in computational social science, business and economics. After my Ph.D. and prior to joining the faculty at BU, I worked as a post-doctoral research associate at NYU Stern with some wonderful people, including Sinan Aral, Lev Muchnik, and Sean Taylor.
