International Workshop

Active Matter x Complex Flow

Details

Date: March 22 (Fri), 2024

Place: Zoom & Room 1220, Science Building 4 (2nd floor), Hongo Campus, The University of Tokyo
（東京大学本郷キャンパス理学部４号館２階1220教室）
Note: In-person participants may be prioritized over online participants e.g. during questions, so we encourage your in-person participation!

(Although in-person participation does not require registration, we appreciate your registration to estimate the number of participants.)

Remark: Due to the University of Tokyo's graduation ceremony on this day, restaurants/stores in/around the campus may be crowded. Although there are a convenience store/food stands/cafes/COOP shops/cafeterias very close to the conference site, bringing your lunch may ease your life.

Purpose:
This meeting aims to bring together researchers in active matter physics and fluid mechanics interested in the complex flows in soft/active/biological materials. With the initiative of JST PRESTO "Complex Flow" researchers, we anticipate future collaborations to emerge from the casual conversations of all the participants during the meeting.
