  • Comment: Not enough from reliable sources to prove notability provided. His publication is obviously primary.
    May be notable, but I can't see enough regarding this. Please provide more. Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 16:45, 16 November 2018 (UTC)

Stefan Thurner (born 1969) is an Austrian physicist and complexity researcher.[1][2] He has been professor for Science of Complex Systems at the Medical University of Vienna since 2009,[3] external professor at the Santa Fe Institute since 2007, senior researcher at the International Institute of Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA) in Laxenburg / Austria since 2010, and guest professor at the Nanyang Technological University in Singapore since 2016.

He promoted the foundation of the Complexity Science Hub Vienna[4] and has been its president since 2015.[5][6] The Complexity Science Hub Vienna is a research co-operation of five Austrian universities (Medical University of Vienna, TU Wien, Technical University Graz, WU Wien, Danube University Krems), two research institutions (AIT Austrian Institute of Technology, International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis IIASA), and the Austrian Economic Chambers, with the aim to promote Big Data and complexity research in Austria for the benefit of society.[7]

Stefan Thurner's research areas are the foundations of complex systems[8], systemic risk[9][10][11], network medicine, computational social sciences, and financial crisis[12][13]. He has been working together with Nobel Prize laureates such as Murray Gell-Mann and Sydney Brenner, and complexity researchers such as W. Brian Arthur, Geoffrey West, Doyne Farmer or J. Stephen Lansing.

In 2018, Stefan Thurner was awarded "Scientist of the year 2017" in Austria.[14][15]
