Victor Quintanar-Zilinskas

Victor Quintanar-Zilinskas is a graduate student at the University of California, Irvine.

He was raised in Palo Alto, CA and his interests and outlooks are heavily influenced by his upbringing in Silicon Valley's technoculture. He double-majored in math and biology at Santa Clara University (class of 2009). His undergraduate research in computational neuroscience engendered interest in the area that is now his current research program. He also worked with Geoffrey Bowker(who was, at the time, at Santa Clara University), the product of their work being a characterization of the work practices of scholar communities that study complex systems (e.g. networks of ecologists that study various facets of the same ecosystem)
