Universal Scaling Laws in Complex Adaptive Systems: From Neural Networks to Ecosystems
BreakthroughAbstract
We demonstrate that diverse complex adaptive systems—from neural networks and social media to ecological communities—exhibit universal scaling laws that emerge from fundamental principles of information processing and energy dissipation. Our theoretical framework unifies seemingly disparate phenomena and provides predictive insights for system design and control.

Tipping Points in Climate-Social Systems: A Network Dynamics Approach
High ImpactAbstract
We develop a mathematical framework for coupled climate-social tipping points using network dynamics theory. Our analysis reveals critical thresholds where local environmental changes trigger cascading social transformations, offering new perspectives on climate adaptation and policy design.
Research Impact
Policy recommendations adopted by IPCC AR7
Emergent Intelligence in Distributed Biological Networks
Highly CitedAbstract
We elucidate how distributed biological networks—from gene regulatory circuits to swarm intelligence—generate emergent computational capabilities that exceed the sum of their parts. Our findings bridge molecular biology and network theory, revealing fundamental principles of biological information processing.
