Jan Broekaert is a postdoctoral researcher at the SKEMA Centre for Analytics and Management Science at SKEMA Business School in Sophia Antipolis, France. He earned his PhD in Physics from the Vrije Universiteit Brussel in 1994 and his Master of Science in Physics from the same university in 1987. From 2010 to 2017, he served as Adjunct Faculty at Vrije Universiteit Brussel, where he directed PhD theses, including those of F. U. Kaputu in 2017 and K. De Looze in 2013. Following this, he held postdoctoral positions at Indiana University Bloomington from 2017 to 2019 and at the University of Leeds from 2019 to 2020. His research integrates physics with cognitive science, operations research, and artificial intelligence, focusing on quantum-like models for human decision-making, epidemic dynamics on social-contact networks, supply chain resilience under disruptions, and neural architectures for financial forecasting and energy management.
