I am a research scientist at RIKEN Center for Interdisciplinary Theoretical and Mathematical Sciences (iTHEMS).

My research focuses on human and machine behavior. Using economic games, evolutionary game theory, and network science, I study the emergence, persistence, and breakdown of prosocial behavior. I am also interested in whether machines can exhibit socially intelligent behavior and how they perform in multiplayer and networked settings.
