The Santa Fe Institute is a nonprofit research and education center in the research services sector, based in Santa Fe, New Mexico. It seeks to identify underlying patterns that recur across complex physical, biological, social, cultural, technological, and potential astrobiological contexts. A global network of scholars collaborates across disciplines to pursue rigorous reasoning in understanding evolving systems. The institute aims to reveal the mechanisms that shape complex systems and to apply that understanding to improve the well-being of people and life on Earth. A recent development is a collaboration with Microgrid Systems Lab to form a Complex Adaptive Grid Working Group, illustrating ongoing partnerships in applied complexity research.
