kTLog2:
Information and thermodynamics from quantum to biological systems
at the Parador de Cuenca (Cuenca, Spain)
Nonequilibrium thermodynamics has experienced a renaissance in the last 30 years with the advent of stochastic thermodynamics. On the occasion of Juan Parrondo's 60th birthday, we are organzing a scientific meeting on the past and future of this field, focusing on three themes central to Juan's career:

On the occasion of Juan Parrondo's 60th birthday, we are organzing a scientific meeting on the past and future of this field, focusing on three themes central to Juan's career:
Thermodynamics of information, computation and feedback
Quantum thermodynamics of nanosystems
Energetics and thermodynamics of living matter
The event will gather past and present collaborators of Juan Parrondo and researchers with a long-standing friendship who contributed to Juan's fruitful career in science and education.
Organizers: Jordan Horowitz (U. Michigan), Luis Dinis (U. Complutense), Massimiliano Esposito (U. Luxembourg), Edgar Roldan (ICTP)
