The founder and chair of CASA, Prof. Michael Batty has
been awarded the prestigious Lauréat Prix
International de Géographie Vautrin Lud, the highest award that can
be gained in the field of geography. This prize is widely known as the “Nobel
prize of geography”. From 1991, only 22 remarkable researchers were awarded
this prize such as David Harvey, Yi-Fu Tuan and Sir Peter Hall.
He has been running his own blog, A Science of Cities, which provides valuable theories, papers and presentation files. Also, he launched a special online class to introduce his complexity theory and methods within Santa Fe Complexity Explorer teaching site. This site is systematically organised with good materials and should be helpful to those who want to learn more about complexity theory and application methods.
