Henrik Jensen

 

“Complexity science is a shift of focus”

 

The sixth talk was given by Henrik Jensen from Imperial College London.

 

Stating that the world is a world not of things, but of processes – processes between cells creating organisms, processes between individuals creating societies, and so on –, Henrik sees complexity science as the most fundamental of sciences, as it endevours to understand natural laws of processes, looking for common behaviors of totally different parts of the world, like economics, ecosystems or the human brain.
