It's great to see a new student enter our group meetings every now and then, #academicsky! While we're talking about quite specific topics ranging from neural networks to governments and earth climate, our meetings are open for everyone.

Hey, #academicsky! In January, we got together twice with Prof. Jan Härter's Climate Physics group of the Physics Institute in Potsdam. Each member of both groups got to present their current projects to each other.

If you're interested in hearing @karowiesner.bsky.social talk about #complexity, check out the episodes on Simplifying Complexity with her! We highly recommend giving the rest a listen too - there are plenty of systems and phenomena to explore. 🧪

As a highly interdisciplinary field of research, #Complexity Science didn’t just come out of nothing. It grew out of ideas from cybernetics and later, concepts like cellular automata. Due to it relying on the groundwork of other sciences, it emerged only recently as an independent field.🧪

Hello there! We're the Complexity Science group at the University of Potsdam, consisting of professor @karowiesner.bsky.social , post-docs, PhDs, as well as master's and bachelor's students and student assistants.

What is a complex system? #Complexity can be found anywhere from neural networks and ant colonies, to climatic systems and governments. Here, at the University of Potsdam, the research group led by physicist @karowiesner.bsky.social explores ways to quantify and better understand complexity.
