Complex Systems Summer School 2012

Please post your questions or additional comments on this page. This Friday this session of the Glue Session will be held as a forum, please post your questions below.

  • What are the limits of the methods (analysis, simulation, experiment, meta-analysis, ethnography) you use for the questions you are interested in?
  • What methods would you be excited to see supplement and complement your approach?
  • If emergence is not reducible to the property of the parts then where does it 'emerge' from?
  • If fundamental law is derived from symmetry relationships, then what is the 'law' that drives the process of 'symmetry-breaking'?
  • What systems are clearly not 'complex'?
  • Is science ultimately limited by mathematics or our imagination?
  • What are the principles and mechanisms that lead to the emergence of robustness in biological systems?
