The members of the Center for Nonlinear and Complex Systems
are very active in research and bring in significant external funds for
supporting these projects. The Center fosters interactions among
its members through the Seminar Series as well as providing limited seed
money for pilot projects on occasion. Listed below is the current
and pending support for grants that include at least two Center members.
In addition, a list of single-investigator grants of Center members in
the area of nonlinear and complex systems is also given.
