The Santa Fe Institute The reference center for complex systems and a model of interdisciplinary research. The Institute produces a series of working papers involving research done by members and collaborators. These Working Papers Series provide a good picture of the advances done at SFI and in associated Labs.

Center for Models of Life In the Center for Models of Life, C-MOL, we use methods from physics to develop models dealing with computation and communication processes in biological systems. The basis for such quantitative models are the different networks that play a central role in much of the research on complex systems, and which range from the regulation of actions in the simplest viruses to the diverse phenomena that take place within ecological and social systems.

FAU Center for Complex Systems and Brain Sciences A research center located in Florida, exploring some of the most fascinating questions relating brain complexity, such as: How do we play and listen to music? How are nerve cells connected together in the brain? How does the function of any system depend on how its elements are connected?.

The complex systems group at NIC The group performs research on numerical statistical physics. This implies the development and improvement of basic algorithms, and their application to specific problems. These problems cover a wide area with emphasis on equilibrium and non-equilibrium systems, soft matter, disordered systems, and biological physics.

The Complex Systems Group at Fritz-Haber Institute, Berlin The group carries out theoretical research on a broad range of topics related to self-organization in nonequilibrium chemical and biological systems. Basically, we want to understand how simple interactions between simple elements can give rise to complex coherent patterns of collective behaviour in such systems. We are also interested in the problems of design and control of self-organization.

Center for Complex Network Research, Notre Dame. USA The research, directed by Professor Barabasi, has a simple objective: think networks. It is about how networks emerge, what they look like, and how they evolve; and how networks impact on understanding of complex systems. To understand networks, our research has taken us to rather unexpected areas.

Mendes Lab, University of Aveiro, Portugal Our world has a network construction. Networks are everywhere: cellular networks, the Internet, the Web, social and economics networks. All these networks are extremely compact, infinite-dimensional objects with complex architectures. The questions are: How are the networks organized? How do these complex architectures emerge? How do networks evolve? What is special about processes taking place on the complex networks? How to design an optimal network? .

Luis Amaral Lab Our group's goal is to develop models that provide insight into the emergence, evolution, and stability of complex systems. To this end we develop and validate models that can be studied by means of computational experiments. Our approach focus on the identification of the mechanisms determining the dynamics of a given system. We then translate these mechanisms into a parsimonious set of rules that can be implemented and investigated by computational means.

Mar Newman's Group Our research is on the structure and function of networks, particularly social and information networks, which are studied using a combination of empirical methods, analysis, and computer simulation. Among other things, we have investigated scientific coauthorship networks, citation networks, email networks, friendship networks, epidemiological contact networks, and animal social networks.

Vito Latora's Lab Many complex systems can be modeled as a network, where the vertices are the elements of the system and the edges represent the interactions between them. Coupled biological and chemical systems, neural networks, social interacting species, computer networks or the Internet are only few of such examples. Characterizing the structural (the connectivity) properties of the networks is then the first step in order to understand the complex dynamics of these systems.

Stephan Bornholdt's Lab Our living world is made up of simple elementary forces and constitutents. But how do these work together to make life, evolution, brains, genomes, immune systems, societies? We study general principles of complex systems in nature from the perspective of statistical physics, often reducing a system to the most simple working model for a particular phenomenon.

Andreas Wagner's Lab We are interested in genetic networks and their evolution. Molecular biology explores the minutiae of a machinery of daunting complexity. Organismal biology, on the other hand, is far removed from this machinery. In between, a huge gap exists in our knowledge. One of our goals is to help fill this gap. To do so, we study genetic and metabolic networks. These networks form bridges between genes and organisms, connecting molecules to whole organisms and their survival.

Uri Alon Lab Understanding the protein circuits that perform computations within the cell is a central problem in biology. From the point of view of physics, cells offer the challenge of understanding the collective behavior of interacting molecular machines designed to operate with remarkable precision under strong biological constraints. Our lab studies biological networks and circuits using a combined experimental and theoretical approach, aiming to uncover general underlying principles that govern their functioning.

Kim Sneppen's Lab Feedback and decision taking are both elements of biological systems. In some cases, e.g. in development and in lysis-lysogeny decisions of temperate phages, a gene regulative system needs to decide which of a few possible states it wants to be in. When such decisions are to be taken, positive feedback and sensitivity to single molecule fluctuations become important. We in particular consider decision making in the core of temperate phages. Response systems. In particular for responses related to external shocks, the genetic system needs to increase production of certain repair proteins fast. We model a number of such response systems, including Heat shock, unfolded protein response and the SOS response.
