Overview

The Miller Omega Program (Mu Omega Pi) supports projects, individuals, and events at SFI that aspire to explore the frontiers of our understanding of the complex universe. The Miller Omega Program was created to support deep thinking in areas that are untested, unproven, involve considerable uncertainty in their outcomes, and if they should prove correct, could lead to a significant transformation in our understanding of complex phenomena.

The Mu Omega Pi will support individuals who propose daring new ideas, syntheses, and applications irrespective of field. It will also support events that bring together orthogonal modes of thinking (philosophy, literature and science), as well as prizes and awards for outstanding contributions to complexity science.

The Miller Omega Program is run according to a set of values considered by the donor, Bill Miller, in discussion with the SFI President, David Krakauer, to ensure the most effective execution of the program in relation to the SFI core mission and donor intent.
