Predicting the economic downturn during the pandemic

An international team of scientists developed a model in the early days of the Covid-19 pandemic to forecast its economic impact. Their predictions turned out to be highly accurate
Yes we can!

Physicist Fariba Karimi and her team at the Complexity Science Hub Vienna revisited and analyzed the claims made by a ‘sexist’ senior scientist – who said, among other things, that women were less able at physics than men.
Researchers create computer risk model to tackle supply chain disruption

Using mobile phone data, a team at the Complexity Science Hub Vienna mapped an entire nation’s supply chain network. The computer model, which predicts what’s at stake if supply chains break down, can be easily implemented by other countries
And when will your medical care collapse?

The pandemic has taught us to think beyond making healthcare more cost-effective. It should be more resilient, too, says a Viennese team of researchers –  which developed a stress test to identify its strengths and weaknesses
Study unveils first global dataset for SARS-CoV-2 infections in animals

Structured data on the virus in animals is essential to further our understanding of the COVID-19 pandemic and mitigate its spread at the human-animal interface, according to the authors of the paper published in Scientific Data
Theories on socio-political evolution put to the test

An international research team uses a new dynamical model and an exceptional historical data collection to examine major explanations for the evolution of cultural complexity – and finds little support for many, even very influential, theories

The presence of women in corporate boards leads to better financial results, shows a new study 
Smaller tech companies promote greater innovation in cities

Vienna, June 2 - Amazon? Google? Microsoft? No, courting big tech giants may not be a good idea for cities hoping to become tech hubs, according to a recent study by the Complexity Science Hub Vienna and the London School of Economics.

Krypto-Assets: Neue Studie zeigt Risiko von Domino-Effekten bei verschachtelten Finanzdiensten

[Wien, 24. November 2022] Es war ein äußerst turbulentes Jahr für die Kryptowelt. Vor allem die Zusammenbrüche des Stablecoins Terra zu Beginn des Jahres und jener der Krypto-Tauschbörse FTX vor zwei Wochen, ließen manche Investor:innen fassungslos zurück. Eine neue Stud...
