It turns out that the APS highlighted our work on echo chambers in signed networks almost a month ago, and I did not find out about this until today 🫢

In this new paper: doi.org/10.1016/j.ins.… we developed a theory for using signed graph communicability as an effective way to analyze social and biological data. Joint with Fernando Díaz Díaz. Please, spread the news!
