As a result\, the application of complex ity science and\nmethods can potentially help build bridges across discipl ines.\nHowever\, the use of different language and concepts across discipl ines\ncan also act as a barrier to achieving transdisciplinary\ncollaborat ions to address complex challenges.\n DTSTAMP:20250511T163428Z END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:6820d1942a959 DTSTART;TZID=America/Toronto:20190326T133000 SEQUENCE:0 TRANSP:TRANSPARENT DTEND;TZID=America/Toronto:20190326T153000 URL:/complexity-innovation/events/wici-talk-dr-noelle-e ckley-selin-systems-approaches SUMMARY:WICI Talk: Dr. Noelle Eckley Selin : Systems Approaches to\nSustain ability: Climate\, Air Pollution\, and Toxic Substances CLASS:PUBLIC DESCRIPTION:Summary \n\nManaging air pollution\, toxic substances\, and cli mate change is a\ncomplex\, linked sustainability challenge. To better inf orm efforts to\naddress these issues\, we need to understand how policies to\naddress emissions translate into societal benefits. In this talk\,\nD r. Selin will present work from her research group\, using a systems\nap proach to better understand air pollutants such as particulate\nmatter\, o zone\, and mercury.\n DTSTAMP:20250511T163428Z END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:6820d1942b054 DTSTART;TZID=America/Toronto:20180425T090000 SEQUENCE:0 TRANSP:TRANSPARENT DTEND;TZID=America/Toronto:20180426T120000 URL:/complexity-innovation/events/wici-workshop-leverag ing-systems-approaches-improve-human SUMMARY:WICI workshop: Leveraging systems approaches to improve human &\npl anetary health CLASS:PUBLIC DESCRIPTION:Summary \n\nWICI WORKSHOP: LEVERAGING SYSTEMS APPROACHES TO IM PROVE HUMAN &\nPLANETARY HEALTH\n DTSTAMP:20250511T163428Z END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:6820d1942b79a DTSTART;TZID=America/Toronto:20171020T143000 SEQUENCE:0 TRANSP:TRANSPARENT DTEND;TZID=America/Toronto:20171020T153000 URL:/complexity-innovation/events/yacov-haimes-understa nding-modeling-and-managing SUMMARY:Yacov Haimes: Understanding\, Modeling\, and Managing Interdependen t\nComplex Systems of Systems CLASS:PUBLIC DESCRIPTION:Summary \n\nVIEW SLIDES FROM YACOV HAIMES' PRESENTATION: \"UND ERSTANDING\,\nMODELING\, AND MANAGAING INTERDEPENDENT COMPLEX SYSTEMS OF S YSTEMS\"\n[/complexity-innovation/sites/ca.complexity-innovation/files/upl oads/files/haimes.speech_seminar-19_october_2017-ab_0.pdf]. \n\nA JOINT SEMINAR SPONSORED BY WATERLOO INSTITUTE FOR COMPLEXITY &\nINNOVATION [WIC I] AND THE DEPARTMENT OF SYSTEMS DESIGN ENGINEERING.\n\n DTSTAMP:20250511T163428Z END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:6820d1942bf51 DTSTART;TZID=America/Toronto:20180424T140000 SEQUENCE:0 TRANSP:TRANSPARENT DTEND;TZID=America/Toronto:20180424T150000 URL:/complexity-innovation/events/wici-talk-dr-ricard-s ole-synthetic-evolutionary-transitions SUMMARY:WICI Talk - Dr. Ricard Solé : \"Synthetic evolutionary transitions :\nfrom cells to brains and ecosystems\" CLASS:PUBLIC DESCRIPTION:Summary \n\nJOIN US FOR DR.

While the st andard\nsocial network paradigm assumes that network data has been collect ed\nthough eliciting ties from respondents in a predefined set of\nindivid uals\, covert networks pose obviously challenges in several\nrespects. Fir stly\, the individuals in the network might not be known\na prior. Second ly\, what constitutes a relevant set of individuals and\nties might be amb iguous.\n DTSTAMP:20250511T163428Z END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:6820d1942d321 DTSTART;TZID=America/Toronto:20170920T140000 SEQUENCE:0 TRANSP:TRANSPARENT DTEND;TZID=America/Toronto:20170920T160000 URL:/complexity-innovation/events/wici-open-house-sept- 20-2017-dc-1301 SUMMARY:WICI Open House - Sept. 20\, 2017 - DC 1301 CLASS:PUBLIC DESCRIPTION:Summary \n\nWICI Open House - Sept. 20\, 2017 - DC 1301\n DTSTAMP:20250511T163428Z END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
