Complexity in Living Systems - STATPHYS29 Satellite Meeting
9-12 juil. 2025
Palermo reflects a rich history shaped by diverse cultures, unique climate, and traditions. Home to UNESCO sites like Sicilian Norman monuments and a vibrant university, it’s a must-visit destination for cultural and historical exploration. - Palermo (Italie)
The wealth and complexity of new quantitative experimental data in diverse disciplines from molecular biology to neuroscience to computational social and natural sciences require, to be understood, a comprehension at the system level. That necessitates appropriate modelling and fundamental concepts derived from statistical mechanics, dynamical systems, information theory, and machine learning. The interdisciplinary approach to complex and/or nonequilibrium phenomena, ubiquitous in living systems, is essential to such investigations. Statistical mechanics provides a framework to describe in a principled way the variety of emergent behaviours resulting, across different scales, from the interactions between the elementary constituents of biological, ecological, or social systems, ranging from the orchestration of complex genomic functions to information spreading and processing in complex networks, and well beyond. Our STATPHYS29 satellite meeting aims at discussing the current scientific revolution taking place at the frontier between statistical physics and those disciplines, with the goal to consolidate the understanding of the functioning of such systems, and life itself.
