The International Institute for Complex Adaptive Matter (I2CAM) is one of six International Materials Institutes funded by the U.S. National Science Foundation. UQ is a branch campus and I am a member of the Board of Governors. I was delighted to hear yesterday that NSF announced funding would be renewed. Dan Cox and David Pines are to be congratulated for all the hard work they did to help make this happen.
Previous posts mentioned the importance of I2CAM in my research. Indeed it was a talk by Clifford Johnson, author of the blog Asymptotia, at the I2CAM annual meeting that led me to start this blog.
