Chaos and fractals in fluid motion
Dr A Moura, Prof C Grebogi
Applications accepted all year round
The advection of particles and fields by fluid flows is a problem of great interest for both fundamental physics and engineering applications.
Neuronal Dynamics from a complex network perspective
Prof A Politi, Dr E Ullner
Applications accepted all year round
The human brain is possibly the most intriguing complex system we know. The combination of experimental work and theoretical approaches has gained many insides in the last century but we are still far away from a real understanding.
Statistical physics of DNA replication
Dr A Moura, Prof C Romano
Applications accepted all year round
The goal of this project is to apply statistical physics and probability theory to the problem of DNA replication in living cells.
The mathematics behind the smartness of neural networks
Dr M S Baptista
Applications accepted all year round
Intelligence is one of the pillars that allows animals to master their environment. Scientific approaches recently proposed have been capable of simulating networked systems that reproduce similar emergent manifestations of behavior as those observed in the brain.
