Oreste Piro is a dynamical systems theorist and biophysicist. He is at the Universitat de les Illes Balears (UIB) in Palma de Mallorca.
Piro is known for work including his studies of forced relaxation oscillators such as the exactly-solvable PiroGon oscillator,[1] the dynamics of passive scalars in fluid flows,[2][3][4] bailout embeddings,[5] the influence of fluid mechanics on the development of vertebrate left-right asymmetry,[6] and the self-tuned critical network model[7]
