Institute for Cross-Disciplinary Physics and Complex Systems

IFISC tackles mainly theoretical but also experimental challenges situated at the dynamic intersection of complex systems and interdisciplinary applications across diverse fields including photonics, quantum physics, biology, ecology, environment, and social systems. Our research is distinguished by its integration of fundamental principles spanning network theory, statistical and nonlinear physics, stochastic processes, mathematical modeling of collective phenomena, and quantum physics. We extend our focus into complex societal contexts, exploring various facets of information technology, while actively participating in unconventional computing and learning endeavors. Moreover, our investigations delve deeply into the dynamic behaviors of life and environmental systems, underscoring the inherently interdisciplinary character of our work.
