Ginestra Bianconi is a theoretical physicist and a network scientist. She is well known for her work on statistical mechanics of networks including network modelling and critical phenomena on multilayer networks. She is an expert on equilibrium and non-equilibrium approaches leading to the formulation of the Bose-Einstein condensation in complex networks and the discovery of non-equivalence of network ensembles. Recently she is focusing on the interplay between topology and dynamics in higher-order and multilayer networks.
