| On the occasion of John Briggs' 60th birthday this workshop will bring together people who
share John's scientific interests or have even collaborated with him. Hence, the meeting is an
excellent opportunity to acknowledge the progress which has been made in this field over the last two
decades and to discuss future perspectives. The registration fee for the workshop is 40 Euro. We will organize accommodation in our institute's guesthouses or in hotels nearby. Costs for accommodation and meals will be covered by the Max Planck Institute for the Physics of Complex Systems. Limited funding for travel costs is available, please contact us. |
