Ο Χρίστος Νικολαΐδης είναι Λέκτορας Διοικητικής Επιστήμης στο τμήμα Διοίκησης Επιχειρήσεων και Δημόσιας Διοίκησης του Πανεπιστημίου Κύπρου. Κατέχει επίσης θέση ερευνητικού συνεργάτη στην σχολή διοίκησης του Ινστιτούτου Τεχνολογίας της Μασαχουσέτης (ΜΙΤ).

Πριν από την εργοδότηση του στο Πανεπιστήμιο Κύπρου, ο Χρίστος εργάστηκε ως μεταδιδακτορικός συνεργάτης στο MIT Sloan School of Management σε πρόγραμμα που χρηματοδοτήθηκε από το Ίδρυμα James McDonnell. Η έρευνά του επικεντρώνεται στην εφαρμογή μαθηματικών, στατιστικών και υπολογιστικών εργαλείων σε μεγάλης κλίμακας εμπειρικά ερωτήματα και ερευνητικά ερωτήματα που βασίζονται σε δεδομένα, με εφαρμογές στον εντοπισμό της κοινωνικής επιρροής που διαμεσολαβείται, ενισχύεται ή κατευθύνεται από διαλογικές τεχνολογίες.

Christos Nicolaides is a Lecturer in Management Science  and a Marie S. Curie Fellow at the Department of Business and Public Administration at University of Cyprus (UCY) and a Digital Fellow at the Initiative on the Digital Economy at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).

Before joining UCY, Christos was working as a Postdoctoral Fellow at MIT Sloan School of Management funded by the James McDonnell Foundation. His research focus on applying mathematical, statistical and computational tools to large-scale empirical and data driven research questions with applications in identification of social influence that is mediated, amplified, or directed by interactive technologies.
