Faculty of Science has a student body of around 8,000, as well as 1,800 members of staff working in education, research or support services. Researchers and students at the Faculty of Science are fascinated by every aspect of how the world works, be it elementary particles, the birth of the universe or the functioning of the brain.
Foundations and Applications of Emergence (FAEME) is a research priority area at the Faculty of Science (FNWI) at the University of Amsterdam founded in 2022. FAEME gathers expertise from the research clusters
DIEP@UvA,
AI4Science Lab and AMCOOL, and is a joint effort of the
Institute of Physics (IoP), the
Korteweg-de Vries Institute for Mathematics (KdVI), the
Institute for Logic, Language and Computation (ILLC), the
Informatics Institute (IvI), the
Van 't Hoff Institute for Molecular Sciences (HIMS), the
Institute for Advanced Study (IAS), the
Institute for Biodiversity and Ecosystems Dynamics (IBED) and
Anton Pannekoek Institue for Astronomy (API).
Its goal is to create an interdisciplinary research programme among these different institutes that aims at understanding the foundations of emergence and tackle emergent phenomena. FAEME gathers expertise covering subjects such as (quantum) information theory, non-equilibrium statistical physics, theory of critical phenomena, experiments on (quantum) systems and living systems, reaction networks, multiscale modelling, machine learning, complex system theory, agent-based modelling, causal inference, evolutionary game theory, network analysis and stochastic methods.
