Autorenporträt

Henrik Jeldtoft Jensen is Professor of Mathematical Physics at Imperial College London, and leads the Centre for Complexity Science. He is a prominent expert in complexity science and is involved in a variety of high-profile research projects including the application of co-evolutionary dynamics to the modelling of socio-economical sustainability, finance, cultural evolution, innovation, and cell diversity in cancer tumour growth, and has also worked with the Guildhall School of Music and Drama to identify differences in the neuronal response of audience and performers depending on the mode of performance. He has published two books on self-organized criticality and complex systems.
