About
Bruce Edmonds is Director of the Centre for Policy Modelling. Until 2024 he as Professor of Social Simulation at the Manchester Metropolitan University. He is interested in far too many things for his own good, but including: complexity, philosophy of modelling, agent-based simulation, social systems, context, using qualitative data to inform behavioural rules, simulating science, methodology of social simulation, and applications of agent-based simulation.
