Sergei Maslov is a Professor of Bioengineering and Bliss Faculty Scholar at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign with appointments at the Department of Bioengineering, Department of Physics, Carl R. Woese Institute for Genomic Biology, and National Center for Supercomputing Applications. He holds a joint appointment at the Computing, Environment and Life Sciences directorate at Argonne National Laboratory near Chicago. He works on computational models in evolutionary and systems biology, dynamics of microbial ecosystems, and complex networks in biological, technological, and social systems. Dr. Maslov is a statistical physicist by training often using physics-based modeling techniques. He particularly favors simple yet rich "bottom down" models. Dr. Maslov was a recipient of the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers recognizing "his contributions to the physics of complex systems".
