Physics of Living Systems at StatPhys27

该奖项将支持从事生命系统物理(POLS)研究的研究人员参加将于2019年7月在阿根廷布宜诺斯艾利斯举行的第27届国际统计物理会议STATPHICS 27。预计StatPhys27将汇集来自世界各地的约700名参与者，包括资深和年轻的研究人员和研究生。统计物理学在很大程度上是跨学科的，因此具有不同科学背景的研究人员将会参与其中。STATPHY27将持续五天。与StatPhys27相关的是，将在国家科学博物馆举办一项外展活动，为公众举办三场讲座。其中两次会谈将在Pols领域进行。还将举行关于人权、物理学包容性和多样性的会议，以及面向普通公众的外联活动。积极参加StatPhys27将使在POL领域工作的研究人员接触到新的学生和研究人员社区。将对StatPhys27的全体会议进行录像，并在会议网站上提供。通过互联网直播的可能性正在考虑之中。的里雅斯特国际理论物理中心(ICTP)已提出在其办公场所设立一个专门的会议室，人们可以在那里观看视频流媒体。因此，预计StatPhys27将在多个地方产生巨大影响。此外，计划在布宜诺斯艾利斯科学博物馆举行的外展活动将使公众能够了解统计物理和生命系统物理的主题。统计物理是当今统计物理这一广泛跨学科领域最大和最负盛名的会议。它每三年在世界各地举行一次，吸引了大多数从事这一主题研究的社区。10名著名科学家将在全体会议上发表演讲，另有30名科学家将在计划中的四次并行会议之一上发表讲话。会议还将主办玻尔兹曼奖章和统计物理青年科学家颁奖典礼。这位著名的博尔兹曼奖章获得者将发表全体演讲。统计物理27将涵盖各种学科，包括生命系统物理、复杂和跨学科系统、软物质、失衡现象和非线性物理等。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

This award will support the participation of researchers working on the Physics of Living Systems (PoLS) at the 27th International Conference on Statistical Physics, StatPhys27, which will be held in Buenos Aires, Argentina in July 2019. It is expected that StatPhys27 will bring together about 700 participants from all over the world, including senior and young researchers and graduate students. Statistical Physics is largely interdisciplinary, so that the participation of researchers with diverse scientific backgrounds is expected. StatPhys27 will last for five days. Associated to StatPhys27 there will be an outreach activity with three talks for the general public at the National Science Museum. Two of the talks will be in the field of PoLS. There will also be sessions on human rights and on inclusion and diversity in physics and an outreach activity for the general public. Taking active part in StatPhys27 will allow the researchers working in the field of PoLS to reach out to new communities of students and researchers. The plenary talks of StatPhys27 will be videotaped and made available at the conference website. The possibility of streaming them live over the Internet is under consideration. The International Centre for Theoretical Physics of Trieste (ICTP) has offered to set up a special conference room at its premises where people could watch the video-streaming. Thus, StatPhys27 is expected to have a huge impact in various places. Furthermore, the outreach activity that is planned to take place at the Science Museum in Buenos Aires will allow the general public to learn about the subjects of statistical physics and the physics of living systems.StatPhys is the largest and most prestigious conference on the nowadays broadly interdisciplinary area of statistical physics. Held triennially in different parts of the world, it attracts most of the community that does research on the subject. Ten renowned scientists will give plenary talks and another 30 will do so at one of the four planned parallel sessions of StatPhys27. The conference will also host the Boltzmann Medal and Young Scientist in Statistical Physics ceremonies. The recipient of the prestigious Boltzmann Medal will give a plenary talk. StatPhys27 will embrace a variety of subjects including Physics of Living Systems, Complex and Interdisciplinary Systems, Soft Matter, Out-of-equilibrium phenomena and Nonlinear Physics, etc.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
