Agenda |
Stochastic and multi-scaled behavior is a central issue for many different
problems in the sciences.
The purpose of this conference is to bring together leading scientists from several disciplines
including biology, chemistry, complex fluids, material sciences and mathematics to exchange ideas and
to
identify common themes and new frontiers of further research.
REGISTRATION FOR THE MEALS IS REQUIRED. (Speakers do not need to register.)
REGISTRATION
FOR THE CONFERENCE IS REQUIRED. (Speakers do not need to register.) Although there is no registration fee, because SEATING IS LIMITED BOTH IN THE CONFERENCE ROOM AND IN OUR DINING HALL, you are required to register if you wish to attend all or part of the conference.
