	== ~~Research ==~~		*[http://www.liberatingstructures.com/ <u>Liberating Structures</u>]
	By creating a collaborative and interdisciplinary environment for research, Plexus Institute works to promote discoveries in a variety of topic areas that encompass the broader field of complex systems science.

	~~The following are topics Plexus Institute is beginning to explore.~~

	~~== Atomic and Molecular Systems ==~~
	Spontaneous self-organization of atoms and molecules goes beyond simple crystallization. Under the appropriate conditions, remarkable behaviors emerge, such as swirling patterns during chemical reactions and pulsing atomic clusters that grow well-defined nanomaterials. A deeper understanding of atomic and molecular systems can lead to the possibility of precisely manipulating nanoscale processes on a macro-scale – a breakthrough that could revolutionize manufacturing, human health, and other critical needs in society.

	~~== Cellular Systems~~ ==
	The collective behavior of cells is responsible for much of what is fascinating about life – rhythmic heart beats, embryogenesis, an intelligent brain. Unfortunately, the malfunctioning of these intricate cellular systems is also the cause of many diseases. Improving our understanding of cellular systems offers the prospect of unprecedented control over numerous biological processes and the possibility of managing diseases at a systems level.
