About Us

The National Institute of Science and Technology of Complex Systems INCT-SC was created in 2008 by the Ministry of Science and Technology under the auspices of the President of Brazil.

It is based at the Brazilian Center for Physical Research, and consists of 31 scientists and technologists from 16 institutions in the country. It is coordinated by Prof. Evaldo M. Cured and is funded by CNPq and FAPERJ.

A complex, abstract futuristic structure composed of transparent and colored rectangles and grids. The central part features grid-like, overlapping elements with inner components resembling small cylinders and cuboids in shades of white, blue, and orange, intersected by metallic frames.

Research in Complexity

Institute dedicated to integrated research in complex biological, economic and statistical systems.

Complex Biological Systems
A complex, abstract structure composed of interconnected lines and nodes, forming a colorful network on a dark background. The lines are primarily shades of green, yellow, orange, and red, creating a gradient effect across the structure.

Studies on the complexity in biological systems and their dynamic interactions.

A complex network of intersecting steel and glass structures creates a geometric and modern architectural design. The perspective emphasizes the intricate lattice work against a bright sky, projecting a sense of urban complexity.

An aerial view of a large, modern architectural complex featuring circular and semi-circular buildings with gray roofs. The structure is distinctive, resembling a rotary shape with multiple arms extending from a central point. The surrounding area includes pathways, some greenery, and a riverbank nearby, while several vehicles are parked along a curved road.
