<span style="font-weight:700">Abstract:</span> In this seminar I will give an overview of some of our main results in science of science. I will show that the distribution of citation of papers in any discipline can be rescaled to a universal curve, justifying
the use of normalized indicators. I will explore the effect of author’s reputation in the impact of her papers and derive some consequences of the exponential growth of scientific output. I will introduce a network-based approach to compute the novelty of
a product. Finally I will present an intriguing observation on the dynamics of Nobel Prize conferment.</p>

<span style="font-weight:700">Santo Fortunato</span> received his PhD in Theoretical Physics in 2000 at the Department of Physics of the University of Bielefeld, Germany, working on lattice gauge theories, percolation and phenomenology of heavy-ion collisions.
He switched to complexity science in 2004, and from 2005 till 2007, he has been a postdoctoral researcher at the School of Informatics and Computing of Indiana University, working in the group of Alessandro Vespignani. From 2007 till 2011 he has been at ISI
Foundation in Turin, Italy, first as research scientist then as a scientific leader. In 2011, he became Associate Professor in Complex Systems at the School of Science of Aalto University, Finland. He is currently full professor in the School of Informatics
and Computing at Indiana University.</p>
