The Unicist Research Institute (TURI), founded by Peter Belohlavek in 1976, is a global research organization at the forefront of developing a functionalist approach to science. It is renowned for pioneering basic research on evolution and applied research on the causality of adaptive systems and environments, with applications in business, economics, education, social sciences, conscious intelligence, healthcare, and technology.

TURI is one of the few organizations worldwide dedicated to researching the roots of causality in adaptive systems and environments, focusing on understanding their functionality, dynamics, and evolution. This group includes:

•	Max Planck Institute
•	Harvard Causal Inference Center
•	Norwegian Causation in Science Project
•	Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)
•	Santa Fe Institute
•	Stanford Causal Science Center
•	The Unicist Research Institute

The discovery of the unicist ontogenetic logic, which emulates the ontogenetic intelligence of nature, enabled an understanding of the functionality, dynamics, and evolution of adaptive systems, whether living beings or artificial entities. This breakthrough led to the development of the functionalist approach to science and unicist artificial intelligence.

This pragmatic, structural, and functionalist approach addresses the functionality of adaptive entities based on their unified field to ensure outcomes and sustainability. It applies to fields ranging from physics to biology, and extends to the real world, including economic and social sciences.

Founded as an unincorporated non-profit association to study adaptive environments, TURI now operates globally and collaborates with organizations worldwide.
