Tomáš Lintner

I lead SΛTIS lab at Masaryk University, and hold a research associate position at the Mitchell Centre for Social Network Analysis at the University of Manchester. Across both, I treat social data science not as a method but as a way of thinking: statistical modelling, network analysis, and large-scale data integration, applied to the structures that organise social life — in workplace, in classrooms, across species.

My own work moves across disciplinary lines, with a particular interest in dynamic network modelling. I study how behaviours and attitudes spread through social networks, how those networks evolve over time — in human and non-human groups alike — how social structure shapes and constrains the people within it, how pathogens get transmitted among people, and how humans and AI systems shape one another's behaviour. I'll admit it: I don't have a single research topic! I'm a curious person who likes letting the data speak. I believe in reproducible science: preregistered, open, and built to be checked.
