About the

Centre for Complex Systems

 

The Centre for Complex Systems plays a major role in drawing together the disparate complex systems science components of the National Institute of Science (NIS) at the Australian National University.

The aims of the Centre are:


* to provide a framework for bringing researchers together and stimulating interaction and synergy between them
* to promote innovative, interdisciplinary research throughseminars and topical workshops
* to foster graduate education and research through summerschools

The CCS continues the outreach activities of its predecessor,the Centre for Theoretical Physics, while fostering innovative application of the powerful tools of modern theoretical physics
and applied mathematics to a wide range of problems from the physical to the biological sciences. A key feature in these systems is a large number of individual units interacting
collectively and the emphasis is on the emergent behaviour beyond the elementary laws of interaction. The unifying theoretical and mathematical tools include statistical mechanics, many body
theory and nonlinear dynamics, as well as numerical simulation. Academics and students of the University are invited to affiliate with the CCS. Administrative support is provided by the Department of Theoretical Physics, RSPhysSE.
