Dr. Argentino received his PhD from the Individualized Program at Concordia University, using a mixed methods approach from Theological Studies, the Centre for Engineering in Society and the Institute of Information System Engineering. His PhD research was a survey of the QAnon movement, which examined its evolution from a fringe conspiracy theory to a global phenomenon and how it creates novel threats to national security and democratic institutions around the globe.

Dr. Argentino's areas of interest are hybridized threats, use of technology by violent extremist and terrorists, recruitment tactics and techniques, malevolent creativity and threats to democratic institutions. His current research focus is on dangerous conspiracy theories, accelerationism, esotericism, gaming and radicalization, adversarial AI, and the nexus of violent extremism and foreign interference.

Marc-André is a Senior Research Fellow at the Accelerationism Research Consortium. He has a decade of experience researching and working in countering and mitigating threats to national security and has three upcoming books in the work.
