AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on seeking research projects related to complex systems, particularly in social and biological contexts. The original poster (OP) is looking for guidance on potential researchers or institutions in this field. Clarification is provided regarding the OP's background, indicating a completed PhD in physics or materials science focused on phase transitions. The conversation then shifts to potential postdoctoral opportunities, with suggestions including the Santa Fe Institute, the Center for the Study of Complex Systems at the University of Michigan, and the Complex Systems Society, which lists various postdoc positions in Europe. Additionally, there is a mention of language considerations for opportunities in Spanish-speaking countries, particularly for a Brazilian citizen.

I'm looking for research projects in the study of complex system, meanly applied in social and biology problems. I would be so grateful with the indication of researchers in the theme.

Thanks!

Just trying to clarify what you are asking for. If you've already identified the special field in which you want to do a postdoc, I would assume you've already read a large number of research papers in that special field; and, from the authors on those papers, would have identified potential advisors.
 
To the OP:

I looked at your profile and from what I can tell, you have completed your PhD at a university in Brazil in the area of physics (or materials science) related to phase transitions.

Are you currently

(a) employed as a postdoc and seeking projects to work in complex systems,
or

(b) seeking postdoctoral positions outside of Brazil in complex systems?

If (b), then some places I can think of for opportunities include the following:

1. Santa Fe Institute (www.santafe.edu) - research institute devoted to complex systems. Try and see if there are any postdoc opportunities available there.

2. Center for the Study of Complex Systems, University of Michigan (lsa.umich.edu/cscs). According to the website, they are seeking tenure track position there.

3. Complex Systems Society (https://cssociety.org/job-openings) has a number of postings in EU countries for postdoc positions. Two of those positions are based in Spain -- I'm curious as a Brazilian citizen what your fluency would be in Spanish (I've been told that Portuguese speakers have little trouble picking up Spanish).

guys i am currently studying in computer science engineering [1st yr]. i was intrested in physics when i was in high school. due to some circumstances i chose computer science engineering degree. so i want to incoporate computer science engineering with physics and i came across computational physics. i am intrested studying it but i dont know where to start. can you guys reccomend me some yt channels or some free courses or some other way to learn the computational physics.
I'm going to make this one quick since I have little time. Background: Throughout my life I have always done good in Math. I almost always received 90%+, and received easily upwards of 95% when I took normal-level HS Math courses. When I took Grade 9 "De-Streamed" Math (All students must take "De-Streamed" in Canada), I initially had 98% until I got very sick and my mark had dropped to 95%. The Physics teachers and Math teachers talked about me as if I were some sort of genius. Then, an...
Bit Britain-specific but I was wondering, what's the best path to take for A-Levels out of the following (I know Y10 seems a bit early to be thinking about A-levels, but my choice will impact what I do this year/ in y11) I (almost) definitely want to do physics at University - so keep that in mind... The subjects that I'm almost definitely going to take are Maths, Further Maths and Physics, and I'm taking a fast track programme which means that I'll be taking AS computer science at the end...
