Engineered 2D Quantum Materials
This meeting will focus on recent developments exploring emergent electronic, magnetic, and topological phenomena in two-dimensional synthetic structures of quantum materials. The strong interplay between electronic correlations, spin orbit coupling, crystal structure, symmetry, and topology often leads to various collective phenomena in bulk crystals. With reduced dimensionality, the frustrated coupling across 2D interfaces or enhanced interlayer interactions between different quantum materials can lead to new electronic band structures (e.g., flat bands) and to host emergent behaviour which are unattainable otherwise in the constituent bulk systems.This workshop will bring together physicists and materials scientists interested in artificially engineered heterostructures including oxide interfaces, oxide heterostructures, twisted van der Waals materials, twisted cuprates, and other novel moire or layered materials. The participants will have complementary experimental and theoretical...

50 Years of Horndeski Gravity: Exploring Modified Gravity
Recent years have seen a flood of new data, from gravitational wave observations of merging black holes and neutron stars to precision probes of cosmology, which allow for unprecedented tests of our understanding of gravity. Going hand-in-hand with this, there has been significant recent progress on the theoretical side in terms of formulating modified theories of gravity, and using them to make detailed predictions, including in the nonlinear and dynamical regime, which can be confronted with the observations.
We are excited to announce a landmark conference that plans to delve into the forefront of research on modified theories of gravity and brings together leading experts from different disciplines including observational astrophysicists, numerical relativists, cosmologists and mathematical physicists to explore the present status of modified theories of gravity and envision their future theoretical development and implications for observations.
This conference is also timed to coincide with the 50th anniversary of pioneering work in this area carried out by Gregory Horndeski in the Waterloo Mathematical Physics Community. Hosted jointly by Perimeter Institute and the University of Waterloo, this conference will serve as a forum for researchers from different disciplines to exchange ideas at the cutting
edge of gravitational physics.

Emerging infectious diseases: ecology and evolution
Our world is changing! Natural habitats are being degraded at an unprecedented rate. In addition to known threats to biodiversity, this habitat change also paves the way for emerging infections that can cause serious public health concerns. Have you ever wondered how change in biodiversity is linked to human health and well-being? And how biodiversity changes can alter natural transmission cycles of pathogens? If so, this course is for you. Disease ecology integrates theories from many scientific disciplines (e.g., ecology, evolution, mathematics, etc.) to understand how ecological and environmental processes influence the distribution, prevalence, and dynamics of diseases in animal populations. This field has gained significant importance recently, especially in light of global health challenges (e.g., COVID-19, Ebola, etc.). By studying disease ecology, we can gain valuable insights into how diseases emerge, spread, and impact ecosystems and human societies. Our goal in this course i...

Theoretical and Practical Perspectives in Geophysical Fluid Dynamics
The Earth’s climate is dictated by atmospheric and oceanic dynamics, spanning over a wide range of temporal and spatial scales that undergo multi-scale interactions resulting in energy transfers across a multitude of scales. The energy transfers across these multi-scale regimes are key to the understanding of the energy cycle, but their quantification remains poorly constrained. Physical processes such as turbulent mixing and instabilities are difficult to observe or resolve in the numerical models and are often parametrized. Consequently, the question of energy-consistent closure in ocean and climate models, which heavily rely on parametrizations, remains open and challenging to address. To address these questions, a combination of analytical theories, numerical models, and observational measurements is necessary to advance our understanding of oceanic and atmospheric dynamics.The meeting spans two weeks addressing multi-scale and multi-physics topics in geophysical fluid dynamics inc...

Theoretical and empirical approaches to understand polygenic adaptation
Understanding phenotypic variation in terms of the underlying genetic variation is one of the central problems in biological evolution. During the last decade, valuable insights into the genetic architecture of phenotypic traits have been obtained and it is found that many phenotypic traits ranging from crop yield and human height to complex diseases are polygenic, that is, they are influenced by a large number of genetic variants. Despite this evidence, evolutionary biology continues to be dominated by two extreme views of adaptive dynamics where adaptation occurs either via large changes at a few genetic loci or infinitesimal changes at a very large number of them. The aim of this program is to integrate these two seemingly disparate ideas into a single framework and extend their ambit to include other modes of adaptation, and address how one can describe other scenarios quantitatively and relate them to empirical data.The program will feature pedagogical lectures, research seminars ...
