PhD - conferral date pending (Queensland University of Technology)
Steve's work sits at the intersection of behavioural economics and complexity science, extracting insights from complex, real-world social settings. He seamlessly connects micro, macro, and meso-level socio-economic foundations, underscoring the importance of interdisciplinary research. Delving into topics from stock market dynamics to emerging technologies like AI and quantum tech, he traverses domains such as public health, urban design, online communities, and sports, with ease and rigor. Steve synthesizes this vast knowledge base into a unified framework for understanding and modelling human decision-making in realistic social scenarios. His unique approach turns deep theoretical and empirical insights into actionable strategies, influencing technology design, policy reform, and business management insights.
