So I was looking at the Santa Fe Institute's website and WOW, the research there is REALLY interesting. Does anyone know how difficult it is to get in there for grad student research? Does anyone have personal experience with it?

Find an affiliated professor whose work interests you and then apply to whatever university they work at.

I am familiar with the Santa Fe Institute and their research on complex systems, innovation, and living systems. Their work is highly interdisciplinary and focuses on understanding the emergence and dynamics of complex systems, including social, economic, and biological systems.

The Santa Fe Institute is known for its cutting-edge research and attracts top scientists from around the world. As such, it can be quite competitive to gain admission for graduate research. However, if you are interested in pursuing research in this field, I would recommend reaching out to current researchers at the institute and discussing potential opportunities for collaboration or applying for a research fellowship.

Personally, I have not conducted research at the Santa Fe Institute, but I have colleagues who have and they have spoken highly of the experience and the collaborative environment at the institute. Overall, I would say that the Santa Fe Institute is a highly reputable and exciting place to conduct research in the field of complex systems and I would encourage anyone interested to explore opportunities there.
