I get up every morning determined to both change the world and have one hell
of a good time. Sometimes this makes planning my day difficult. (E.B. White)

<div class="well">
<div class="firstimpression">
<img alt="Stefano Balietti" src="images/stefano.jpg"
class="photo" /> I am a <em>fellow</em> at the Center for
European Social Science Research at Mannheim University
(<a href="https://www.mzes.uni-mannheim.de/d7/en"
target="_blank">MZES</a>) and a <em>postdoc</em> at the
Alfred-Weber Institute of Economics at
<a href="https://www.uni-heidelberg.de/fakultaeten/wiso/awi/index_en.html"
target="_blank">Heidelberg University</a>.
<br/>
Previously, I was at Microsoft
Research <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/group/computational-social-science/"
target="_blank">Computational Social Science NYC</a>, the
Northeastern <a target="_blank"
href="http://networkscienceinstitute.org">Network Science
Institute</a>, the Harvard <a target="_blank"
href="http://www.iq.harvard.edu">Institute for Quantitative
Social Science</a>, and the ETH Zurich <a target="_blank"
href="http://coss.ethz.ch">Computational Social Science</a> group.
<br/>
My methodology brings
together computer simulations and online
behavioral experiments. I create virtual environments to
study human behavior in large groups; I use bots to trigger
specific conditions and artificial intelligence to determine
optimal experimental designs (Bayesian methods and advanced
machine learning).
</div>
My research interests encompass:
<em>
<ul>
<li>consensus formation, social influence, and polarization;</li>
<li>incentives schemes for collective intelligence, in
particular peer review systems;</li>
<li>governance in blockchain systems;</li>
<li>optimal experimental designs, Bayesian optimization with Gaussian
processes;</li>
<li>inequality, perception thereof and its consequences;</li>
<li>noise, efficiency and equality in coordination and public-good games;</li>
<li>philosophy of science, in particular Paul Feyerabend's body of work.</li>
</ul>
</em>
<br/>
I am also an active <em>open source developer</em>. I am the creator of the nodeGame JavaScript
platform for conducting real-time online group-behavior experiments: <a href="https://nodegame.org"
