We invite you to the symposium “BulbulFest”, which marks the 65th birthday of Bulbul Chakraborty and celebrate all of her scientific achievements. The day-long event will be held in her honor at Brandeis University. This will be a research symposium with talks given by her collaborators past and current, her past students, postdocs as well as friends in the broader condensed matter and statistical physics community. The symposium will be held on March 9th 2019, which is the Saturday after the March Meeting. The symposium will be followed by a banquet dinner in the evening. Brandeis is conveniently located in the suburb of Boston, which is also the venue for March Meeting 2019.

The meeting will be held on the first floor of the Lemberg Academic Center at Brandeis University. As you enter Brandeis through the main entrance on South Street, drive toward the police booth and then take a left. At the next intersection take a left just after the Admissions building. You will quickly be in the T parking lot, behind the theater. Turn right and drive to the very far end of the lot and park.
