Albert-László Barabási

Albert-László Barabási is a noted physicist and researcher known for his work in network science, which studies how interconnected systems function. He gained prominence for developing the "scale-free" network theory, highlighting that many real-world networks, like social media and the internet, have a few highly connected nodes while most have few connections. This insight helps explain the structure of everything from social relationships to the spread of diseases. Barabási's research has influenced various fields, including biology, sociology, and computer science, underscoring the importance of understanding connectivity in complex systems.
