J. Doyne Farmer<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ReSES project is happy to announce an upcoming online public lecture titled \u201cMaking Sense of Chaos: A Better Economics for a Better World\u201d to be delivered by Doyne Farmer. This event is part of the Argumenta Distinguished Lectures series organized by ReSES at the Faculty of Social Sciences at the University of Helsinki.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Professor J. Doyne Farmer is Director of the Complexity Economics programme at the Institute for New Economic Thinking at the Oxford Martin School and Baillie Gifford Professor of Complex Systems Science at the Smith School for Enterprise and the Environment, University of Oxford. He is also External Professor at the Santa Fe Institute and Chief Scientist at Macrocosm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His current research is in economics, including agent-based modeling, financial instability and technological progress.

His past research includes complex systems, dynamical systems theory, time series analysis and theoretical biology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Professor Farmer’s talk will be based on his new book, Making Sense of Chaos<\/a>, in which he presents a manifesto for doing economics better in our increasingly complex world. Making Sense of Chaos <\/em>is about “how to do economics differently to take proper advantage of big data and computer power, to create economic models that make better predictions and to give better policy advice about the hard problems facing the world.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Funded by the Finnish Cultural Foundation, the ReSES project aims to rethink how economics can better serve society. The project\u2019s Argumenta Distinguished Lectures series provides a platform for leading experts to present ideas that challenge conventional economic thought and promote societal well-being. Professor Framer\u2019s lecture, \u201cMaking Sense of Chaos: A Better Economics for a Better World\u201d is a significant addition to this series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The lecture is free and open to the public, reflecting the ReSES project\u2019s dedication to making scholarly discussions accessible to a broad audience. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
