[inControl podcast @inControlpdcst]

🎙️ New episode! We explore the beautiful intersection of complexity, emergent behaviour, and feedback control with @mdiberna (@UninaIT). We discuss chaos and bifurcations, piecewise-smooth systems, complex networks, synthetic biology, COVID modeling, and control across scales! 🚀

In moving pedestrian crowds, influence appears sharply uneven: people at the front often shape not just nearby walkers, but the broader group's motion through branching chains of visual following. @RSocPublishing https://t.co/7YvJRebDgv https://t.co/d8uiBWdkgD

Real-time phase estimation of rhythms (heartbeat, gait, gestures) is challenging. We introduce ROPE: a robust method that makes it practical, with applications in life sciences and control.

New paper in JRSI: https://t.co/YcU5dn1z6V

w/ A. Spallone, @FrancescoDeLel4, @mdiberna

[Mario di Bernardo @mdiberna]

Our work on ROPE the first algorithm for real-time phase estimation of multidimensional biological rhythms is out!
Enables real-time synchrony analysis in real-world systems.

Grateful to work with brilliant students and collaborators. Here’s to more discoveries in 2026! 🚀

[Mario di Bernardo @mdiberna]

Proud of what our research group accomplished in 2025! A thread on collective behavior, multi-agent control, and synthetic biology 🧵https://t.co/QIjJL51MZe

[Mario di Bernardo @mdiberna]

🧬 We also ventured into synthetic biology with Davide Salzano and Vittoria Martinelli: in-vivo multicellular control of gene expression & multicellular PID control. Bringing feedback control into living systems!
