Welcome to my webpage. Here you will find some personal data, information about my research
and my scientific publications. In case you have further inquiries, do
not hesitate to contact me.
I am Professor Lector in the
Department of Condensed Matter Physics
of the Faculty of Physics, at the University of Barcelona. I am also
a member of UBICS
(University of Barcelona Institute of Complex Systems).
Prior to this appointment, I was a postdoctoral researcher at the
University of Barcelona, through the Margarita Salas program,
and at the Bruno Kessler Foundation,
in Trento, Italy.
I have a PhD in Physics from the Institute for Cross-Disciplinary
Physics and Complex Systems (IFISC),
a mixed center of the CSIC and the University of the Balearic Islands.
There I worked on topics related to the collective dynamics of social and socio-technical
systems. I have a MSc in Physics of Complex Systems from IFISC and a
BSc in Physics from the
University of Barcelona.
You can pronounce my name as /u.ɾiˈɔɫ/ or /o.ɾiˈɔɫ/. It derives from
the Latin words aureolus/aureus (golden).

My scientific interests, and the research that I conduct, orbit around
Complex Systems and Network Science.
In my research I use analytical and computational techniques
borrowed from statistical physics and stochastic processes. To bring
theory and applications together, I integrate these approaches with
the analysis of large data sets, frequently coming from sociol-technical
systems, but not only. A summarized list of interests comprises:
Besides this list, I have a bent on innovative interdisciplinary problems. Whenever possible, I try to orientate my research on those directions.
