Hi all! 
​Welcome to my personal webpage!

My name is Matthieu Nadini and I am a Postdoctoral Research Associate at the City, University of London and The Alan Turing Institute. I work with Profs. Andrea Baronchelli, Alex Teytelboym, and Angela Gallo in the EPSRC funded project COVID-19: Monitoring the effects of the pandemic on illicit online trade

Additionally, I am a research member of the COVID-19 infodemic taskforce and part of the ongoing effort to map the NFT revolution

My research achievements are summarized in Google Scholar​

​I released a Python 3 pip package TemporalBackbone ! It is based on a methodology to detect the backbone in temporal networks. The methodology was first introduced in a prior work of mine Detecting network backbones against time variations in node properties and then deemed as appropriate for large networks in a following effort Reconstructing irreducible links in temporal networks: which tool to choose depends on the network
