HELD ON A SMALLER SCALE DUE TO COVID-19 RISK Recent decades have seen many significant developments in the area of nonequilibrium physics. Several general results have been found which apply to generic out of equilibrium systems appearing across various interdisciplinary fields. It is important to have a common platform to discuss both the pure developments of nonequilibrium theory and nonequilibrium phenomena observed in specific systems from an interdisciplinary perspective. This will facilitate further advancement in these directions. This program is organized keeping this goal in mind and will focus on the following three themes:A) Fluctuation and response in nonequilibrium systems B) Active systems: Theory and experiment C) Applications in biological systems These topics have been studied extensively over past decades and each of these fields has seen several key advancements, both theoretically and experimentally. For example, a generalized fluctuation-dissipation relation has b...
