In hmolscience, Simone Loreti (c.1987-) is an Italian theoretical physicist noted for []
Overview
In 2012, Loreti began making an effort in attempting to initiate graduate school work in sociophysics, econophysics, socioeconomic physics (or physical socioeconomics), and or human thermodynamics: [1]
“In March 2011, I graduated with a master's degree in theoretical physics at the University of Bologna (Italy). I am strongly interested in sociophysics or in general in physics applied to human behavior: in my thesis I solved a sociological problem using statistical mechanics, and machine learning methods. I am looking for a PhD in socio-physics or human thermodynamics and/or funds for it. Do you know something about it? Any advice is welcome.”
Another variant is found at Loreti’s EconoPhysics Forum blog: [3]
“Dear Sirs, I am looking for a PhD in SocioPhysics (or at most Socio-Econo-Physics), and/or funds for it. Do you know something about it? Any advice is welcome.”
EconoPhysics Forum, to note, is more of a financial physics forum, such as typified by the views of member American physicist Joseph McCauley, who runs a so-called Econophysics department at the University of Houston, but does not necessarily believe that physics and more importantly thermodynamics applies to humans, but only to market patterns.
Education
In 2011, Loreti completed his MS in theoretical physics at the University of Bologna, Italy, after which he worked for a year as a mechanical engineer at Bucci Industries. Currently he is a master’s student at the Institute for Cross-Disciplinary Physics and Complex Systems (IFISC) and a researcher at the University of Surrey. [2]
