A “Balanced” Neighborhood Isn’t Always a Better One

A new study by the Complexity Science Hub (CSH) questions a widely used urban planning strategy: mixing income groups to strengthen social cohesion. The results from Rotterdam show—balance, as it's currently defined, may be just an empty promise.
90-day tariff break risks major shipping disruption, says report

Vienna, May 27, 2025 — The surprisingly announced 90-day tariff pause in the trade war between the US and China could destabilize global maritime trade more than the tariff increases imposed so far. While the tariff shock almost completely paralyzed trade between the wor...
Segregation Fuels Faster Spread of Infectious Diseases

Using two major US data sets, new model reveals how deep social divides make entire communities—rich and poor alike—more vulnerable to infectious diseases
Who Really Calls the Shots in Crypto Decision-Making?

In one out of five DAOs, a single contributor held enough tokens to make decisions alone, according to a study from the Complexity Science Hub (CSH)—raising questions about how democratic these systems truly are.
When Systems Suddenly Tip: New Insights into Hard-to-Predict Transitions

Systems that may appear similar at first glance can behave very differently near a tipping point. Their behavior depends on microscopic details, according to a new study by the Complexity Science Hub—findings that could impact risk assessments in economics and society.
Wenn Systeme plötzlich kippen: Neue Erkenntnisse zu schwer vorhersagbaren Übergängen

Systeme, die auf den ersten Blick ähnlich erscheinen, unterscheiden sich in der Nähe des Kipppunkts stark. Denn ihr Verhalten hängt von mikroskopischen Details ab, so eine aktuelle Studie des Complexity Science Hub – mit möglichen Auswirkungen auf Risikoabschätzungen in ...
Smartwatch Data: Study Finds Early Health Differences in Long Covid Patients

People who later experienced persistent shortness of breath or fatigue after a SARS-CoV-2 infection were already taking significantly fewer steps per day and had a higher resting heart rate before contracting the virus, according to a study by the Complexity Science Hub ...
Smartwatch-Daten: Unterschiede bei Long Covid-Betroffenen bereits vor der Infektion

Menschen mit langanhaltender Kurzatmigkeit oder Müdigkeit nach einer SARS-CoV-2-Infektion gingen bereits zuvor täglich deutlich weniger Schritte und hatten einen höheren Ruhepuls, so eine Studie des Complexity Science Hub (CSH), die in npj Digital Medicine veröffentlicht...
Five Lessons We Should Learn from Fighting the Pandemic

Five years have passed since Austria went into lockdown on March 16, 2020. Back then, the future was uncertain, and no one knew what to expect. Yet, the ongoing calls for reflection show that the impact of those early days still resonates today. One person closely involv...
Meinungen im sozialen Umfeld prägen die Wahrnehmung gesellschaftlicher Spaltung

Gehen die Meinungen zu umstrittenen politischen Themen tatsächlich so stark auseinander, wie viele Menschen es wahrnehmen? Mit dieser Frage haben sich Forschende des Complexity Science Hub (CSH), des Leibniz-Zentrums für Marine Tropenforschung (ZMT) in Bremen und der Uni...
