Main Page | See live article | Alphabetical index The International Society for Complexity, Information, and Design (ISCID) is a cross-disciplinary professional society that investigates complex systems apart from external programmatic constraints like materialism, naturalism, or reductionism. The society provides a forum for formulating, testing, and disseminating research on complex systems through critique, peer review, and publication. Its aim is to pursue the theoretical development, empirical application, and philosophical implications of information- and design-theoretic concepts for complex systems. The society features online chats with well known scientists and philosophers. Past chats have included ground breaking scholars such as David Chalmers, Stuart Kauffman and William A. Dembski.
