Universality and Accident in Complexity: The Odyssean Quest of Murray Gell-Mann

“复杂性中的普遍性与偶然性：默里·盖尔曼的奥德赛探索”是为了纪念诺贝尔奖得主默里·盖尔曼博士的生平和记忆而组织的研讨会。研讨会将汇集不同学科的研究领导人，就复杂系统动力学的共同机制进行激烈讨论。盖尔曼博士的遗产将被用作对话的启动器，以形成创造性的合作伙伴关系，并为旨在支持和进一步寻找复杂问题解决方案所需的创造性思维的前沿研究提供信息。最重要的是，这项活动为新一代的初级研究人员提供了一个培训机会，这将有助于加速在复杂系统研究中识别新问题和解决方案所需的跨学科合作科学交流。因此，该项目将促进早期职业研究人员的科学和专业发展，并将传统上代表性不足的群体的科学家纳入其中。该研讨会将于2020年3月在新墨西哥州圣达菲的圣达菲研究所举行。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

"Universality & Accident in Complexity: The Odyssean Quest of Murray Gell-Mann" is a Symposium organized to honor the life works and memory of Nobel Prize Laureate, Dr. Murray Gell-Mann. The Symposium will bring together research leaders across diverse disciplines for intense discussions about the common mechanisms underpinning the dynamics of complex systems. Dr. Gell-Mann's legacy will be used as a conversation starter to form creative partnerships and inform cutting-edge research designed to support and further the creative thinking needed to find solutions to complex problems. Most importantly, this activity is a training opportunity for a new generation of junior researchers that will help accelerate the cross-disciplinary collaborative scientific exchanges needed to identify novel problems and solutions in the investigation of complex systems. As such, this project will facilitate the scientific and professional development of early-career researchers as well as inclusion of scientists from traditionally underrepresented groups. The symposium will be held at the Santa Fe Institute in Santa Fe, NM, in March 2020.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
