Recently we had the pleasure of hosting Alejandro Espinosa-Rada in the SDEC Lab during his visit to Sydney. Alejandro is an Assistant Professor in Sociology at the Pontifical Catholic University of Chile and a Visiting Professor at KU Leuven. During his visit, we exchanged ideas on multilayer network modeling, group dynamics, and multidisciplinary
collaboration – alongside wide-ranging conversations about Australian and Chilean culture. The visit also included braving a walk in a classic Sydney heatwave for a well-earned lunch (proof in the photo!), reminding us that the best research exchanges often happen both inside and outside the lab. Alejandro is also the co-host of Knitting Networks, a bilingual podcast on social network science endorsed by the International Network for Social Network Analysis. We encourage you to check it out!
Great to host you, Alejandro!
