Tom Couzin

Tom Couzin is a scientist who studies how animals and humans behave in groups. He uses mathematical models and computer simulations to understand how decisions are made collectively, like how fish schools or bird flocks move, or how people coordinate in crowds. His research uncovers the rules and patterns behind social interactions, helping us better understand collective behavior, decision-making, and organization in living systems. Couzin's work has applications in ecology, robotics, and even understanding human social dynamics.
