Join us in honoring the contributions of Prof. H. E. Stanley to diverse areas in statistical physics, neuroscience, econophysics, physiology and networks, at HES70 on the occasion of his 70th birthday.

In a research career spanning nearly five decades, Gene Stanley has made pioneering contributions to a wide range of subjects, from the theory of critical phenomena and phase transitions, the study of biological processes, complex systems, and to the application of statistical physics to studying economic phenomena. The symposium will feature invited speakers who have been associated with key developments in these areas, many of whom are also among the large group of collaborators – students, postdocs and others – that Gene’s gregarious style of research has attracted.

In addition to the invited talks, there will be a poster session, and a session dedicated to celebrating Gene’s contributions that will be informal and open for participation. We hope you will mark your calendars so that you can be a part of this wonderful event with former and present associates of Gene Stanley, and other colleagues wishing to celebrate Gene’s contributions and his 70th birthday.
