Guillermo Romero Moreno
Centrum Wiskunde & Informatica, Netherlands.
I am an interdisciplinary researcher mostly working within the fields of computational social sciences using tools from complex systems, network science, agent-based simulations, and Artificial Intelligence. My main focus of research is the study of how external influence can affect the dynamics of opinions within a social group, its social norms, or other phenomena such as consensus or opinion fragmentation. While I have previously focused on theoretical and computational approaches, my current aim is to further integrate my expertise with that of researchers from other disciplines to increase the significance and impact of my research.
I have published peer-reviewed articles on various topics, including opinion dynamics, party competition, multimorbidity, swarm sensing, voting advice applications, and the interpretability of black-box models.

| Oct 02, 2026 | I co-organised the Deep Dive in Agentic AI & news organisations, creating a space for academia and media stakeholders to discuss the changes that agentic AI will bring in news production and consumption. You can read about what was discussed at this blogpost. |
| Jun 26, 2026 | I tutored a project at Complexity72h in London, UK. I had an amazing team of 10 researchers with whom we made this preprint in just 72h!: SimPol: Simulating polarisation in political belief networks in European countries. We are currently working on it to submit it to a journal. |
| May 21, 2026 | I attended the conference Democracy at Risk? Societal Challenges, Data, and Research Infrastructures in the Age of Computational Social Science, hosted by the Central European University and the Complexity Science Hub in Vienna. Very inspiring talks and conversations! |
| Apr 21, 2026 | We have been awarded a SoBe DSC RPA Grant (€10,000) from the University of Amsterdam for our interdisciplinary data science project Scrolling into division: An interdisciplinary data-to-model approach examining political discussion and (de)polarization among young TikTok users ! |
