Known for Conjecture considering criticality as the brain dynamical state.
Influenced Per Bak

Dante R. Chialvo (born 1956) is an Argentine professor at Northwestern University. Together with Per Bak, they put forward concrete models considering the brain as a critical system. Initial contributions focussed on mathematical ideas of how learning could benefit from criticality.[1][2] Further work provided experimental evidence for this conjecture both at large and small scale.[3][4][5][6] He was named Fulbright Scholar in 2005[7] and elected as a Fellow of the American Physical Society in 2007.[8][9]
