A huge present for my small contribution at the Game Theory Summer School in Kyiv arrived today! 🎁

The school was jointly organised by the Kyiv School of Economics and the Ukrainian Catholic University. The main work was carried out by the local organisers, who put together an excellent programme 🙏

Attended my first RHINO conference (APCTP Workshop on the Roles of Heterogeneity in Nonequilibrium) this weekend 🎉 where I had the pleasure of giving an invited talk.

The event was held at Pukyong National University, Busan, & was wonderfully organized by Seung Ki Baek + Eun Lee 🙏 🙇‍♀️

+ Yesterday, I gave a lecture on computational approaches to game theory at a summer school in Kyiv. You can find more information about the summer school, and a very impressive list of speakers, here: game-theory-school.kse.ua 🎲🧮🇺🇦

It was also my first time visiting China, and it’s safe to say I’ll be going back soon!

Here are a few random pictures from Hangzhou and Beijing.

Last week, I had the pleasure of attending EGAI (Game Theory & Artificial Intelligence Conference) 🎲🤖 as an invited speaker. This conference is becoming the main event for bringing together the game theory community in 🇨🇳 I wrote a short post about the conference here: nikoleta-v3.github.io/egai/

I am genuinely very excited to announce that I am officially a Research Scientist at the RIKEN Center for Computational Science in the Discrete Event Simulation team, led by Nobuyasu Ito! 🇯🇵 🗾 🗻

Looking for a light read during the holidays?🎄 Let me tell you about our new publication with Vince Knight & @marcharper.bsky.social on the properties of strategies in computer tournaments for the Iterated Prisoner’s Dilemma (IPD) 🧵

🚨Together with Ethan Akin, Martin A Nowak and @chilbe.bsky.social our new paper published in PNAS characterizes partner strategies (Nash strategies that sustain cooperation) for reactive-n strategies in repeated games 🧵
