Complexity Thoughts

Real systems, from your tiny cells to societies, are inherently complex: they are characterized by simple units which, once interconnected with each other to interact, generate unexpected patterns that lead to complex and fascinating phenomena.

Manlio De Domenico is a complexity scientist and Professor of Applied Physics at the University of Padova, Italy. He is an award-winning science communicator curating several initiatives to communicate complexity science for both experts and non-experts.

This is the AI-generated podcast of Complexity Thoughts, his popular newsletter on Substack.
