[Workshop in Mallorca] Embracing Complexity

We are pleased to invite you to the Workshop titled "Embracing Complexity: Principled and Practical Approaches to Emergence". The workshop is scheduled for June 23-27 2025 at the Institute for Cross-Disciplinary Physics and Complex Systems (IFISC in Spanish) in Palma de Mallorca, Spain ( https://ifisc.uib-csic.es/en/). ABOUT THE WORKSHOP This workshop will offer a comprehensive and interdisciplinary perspective on the applications of emergence in examining various real-world systems, including its use in understanding high-order interactions and complexity across diverse biological and ecological scales. With an emphasis on the micro-to-macro relations between cells, humans, and ecology, we aim to present emergence both as a practical tool and a principled approach. The mornings will be devoted to theory-driven presentations that draw from recent operational advances in capturing emergent phenomena, while the afternoons will feature hands-on sessions tailored for practical implementation of these topics. Something we are most thrilled about will be a coordinated outdoor excursion during the week to unwind and visit the island. This is not all, we also plan to have an immersive installation centred on exploring a collective experience of emergence with the voluntary participation of all the attendees. We hope you will also be pleased to join! REGISTRATION All applications should submit an abstract, which will be the key element for selection. After selection, participants will be asked to pay a fee of 400€, which will cover 5 nights (from the 22nd to the 26th of June) at the residency of the Universidad de las Islas Baleares, breakfast, lunch, coffee breaks and the excursion. SUBMISSION DEADLINE 14 of March of 2025. Selection will be informed by the end of April of 2025. Abstract submission here <https://forms.gle/eQhWYyC3mjd6EhYC9>.
