Abstract
The study of natural pattern formation is a very broad area. The workshop
will focus on selected topics in which new developments in physical
sciences, related to pattern forming systems, are motivating or have
the potential to motivate new research in PDEs. These topics center
around Rayleigh-Bénard convection, wave patterns, reaction-diffusion
systems, biological pattern formation including neural models, as well
as fronts and interface evolution including atomistic models.
