Physics of Life Summer School: Interdisciplinary Challenges for Early Career Researchers in Non-Equilibrium Physics III

​Non-equilibrium processes play important roles at many length scales, from controlling chromatin interactions within a cell nucleus to governing the collective dynamics of fish schools. This Summer School will bring together early career researchers and students working across these scales. By identifying common insights between disciplines, this meeting aims to promote collaborations and knowledge exchange among young researchers working in the Physical and Life Sciences. This summer school represents one of the two Summer Schools that will be delivered by PoLNET3 and is being delivered with the support of the Higgs Centre.
