Please take note of this upcoming event co-sponsored by the Center for the Study of Complex Systems and ICAM. A .pdf of the event poster is attached.. If you have a place to post one or several, please feel free to make a copy (or copies) and do so. If you have a place where you would think a larger (10x17) poster could be placed, please let us know and we will either get one to you, or have one placed there.
