15th Nordic Workshop on Statistical Physics: Biological, Complex and Non-Equilibrium Systems

Professor Astrid de Wijn, associated member at PoreLab, and Assistant Professor Ralf Eichhorm from NORDITA are organizing the 15th Nordic Workshop on Statistical Physics: Biological, Complex and Non-Equilibrium Systems, on February 25-27, 2026 in NORDITA, Stockholm, Sweden. The workshop is sponsored by NORDITA.

This workshop series provides a forum where scientists in the Nordic countries working in the area of Statistical Physics can meet regularly. The meeting brings together experts interested in the broad spectrum of timely problems in Statistical Physics, ranging from fundamental aspects in the theory of non-equilibrium processes to modern applications in biophysics. Topics covered include diffusion problems, non-equilibrium transport, work relations and fluctuation theorems, large deviations, resetting, inference methods, soft condensed matter (colloids, liquid crystals etc.), self-assembly, population dynamics, physics of DNA and bio-molecules, single-molecule kinetics, neuronal networks, quantum thermodynamics and many more.

The workshop will start on Wednesday morning at around 9.00 with registration and coffee/cake. It will end on Friday (early) afternoon. There will be a conference dinner on Thursday evening.

Registration

If you want to participate in the workshop, please fill in the registration form.

Registration deadline: Feb 15, 2026

There is no registration fee.

There is a (very) limited number of travel grants available for PhD students and young Postdoc fellows from the Nordic countries. If you are interested in such a grant, please contact the organizers via email, and provide a rough estimate of your expenses (travel and/or accommodation).

For administrative reasons you have to register before February 8, if you want to apply for such a travel grant.

Depending on interest and time constraints we *might* set up a session dedicated to short talks by junior researchers (PhD students, young Postdocs). During registration you have the possibility to indicate if you are interested in contributing such a short talk (likely around 5-10 min).
