Markus is a Professor of Information Systems at Te Herenga Waka – Victoria University of Wellington. He is the founder of the Complexity and Connection Science Lab, where an interdisciplinary team of postgraduate students and researchers is working on theories and methods to understand the structures and dynamics of complex systems, and novel computational tools that aim to securely and meaningfully augment human intelligence.

As a computer scientist by education his personal focus is on mathematical models and computational tools that allow for capturing temporal dynamics in complex systems as diverse as the earth system, human language, brain activities, and digital traces online, in order to ultimately understand emergence and meaningful coincidences.
