The special properties of Black Holes have intrigued researchers for decades. They do signal their existence in nature in several ways including by emitting gravitational waves while merging. Their way of handling information is more elusive. In this workshop we plan to discuss mostly several aspects of this information handling with some emphasis on possible relations it has to the theory of chaos, thermalization and quantum information.

Many interesting strongly interacting Quantum Field Theories are not amenable to analytical treatment. This workshop will focus on systematic numerical approaches to such theories relying on the quantum Hamiltonian, including Truncated Spectrum Approach, Light Front Quantization, Matrix Product States and Tensor Networks. Such methods provide a viable alternative to Lattice Monte Carlo simulations. Their advantage is the ability to access real-time observables, and to study Renormalization Group flows originating from strongly-interacting fixed points.

Goal: The purpose of the conference is to bring together researchers from different areas of biology to discuss with scientists from other disciplines the influence of the molecular biology revolution on current research in biology.  Topics will range from investigating specific molecular players, through pathways, to omics and organisms.

Topics

     • Molecular Machines
     • Cellular Pathways and Mechanisms
     • Intra-and Extra-Cellular Coordination and Communication
     • Genomes and Cell Fate
     • Disease, Cancer and Aging

Program: 

There will be four kinds of sessions: Plenary Talks, Discussions, Poster sessions and Workshops.

Plenary Talks: 45-minute talks will be given by invited speakers followed by a short discussion after each talk.

Panel Discussions: At the end of each day, a panel that includes speakers and mediators will discuss issues related to the topic.The audience will be encouraged to participate.

Poster Sessions: Attendees are encouraged to submit abstracts for poster sessions that will take place every day during the lunch break. Some abstracts will be selected by the Scientific Committee for short presentations.

Workshops:  Appropriate abstracts will be selected by the Scientific Committee for Workshops designed for exploring ideas in theoretical biology.

Extended discussions:  On Saturday March 10 conference rooms in IHES will be available for further discussions.
