Viktor Stojkoski, MSc, received a BSc degree in Economics in 2015, and an MSc degree in Statistics in 2016, both from Ss. Cyril and Methodius University in Skopje, R. Macedonia. Currently he is a PhD student in Computer Science at the same university. In the period between September 2015 and December 2019, he was employed a junior researcher at the Center for Computer Science and Information Technologies at the Macedonian Academy of Sciences and Arts (MASA). Since January 2020 he has been an assistant in the department of Mathematics and Statistics at the Faculty of Economics in Skopje. His research interests span from applied econometrics to patterns in complex networks.
