PROGRAMME

Basic sciences, including mathematics, physics, astronomy, chemistry, biology, and earth science, explore the intricate workings of natural phenomena. These disciplines form the foundation of scientific inquiry, offering insights into the fundamental processes governing the universe. Through rigorous study, we enhance our comprehension of matter's transformations, unlocking the mysteries of the cosmos and the complexities of life. We will focus on understanding natural phenomena and exploring the applications derived from this knowledge. We aim to bridge theoretical frameworks, from quantum mechanics to nanotechnology, with practical applications, harnessing scientific discovery to improve lives globally. We welcome abstract submissions across a wide spectrum of basic science disciplines, including mathematics, physics, astronomy, chemistry, biology, earth science, and related fields.

Bukyoung Jhun is a postdoctoral researcher at IT:U Austria, focusing on the statistical physics of complex systems. His main research interest is at the crossroads of network science and data-driven inference, particularly in reconstructing and analyzing the structure of complex networks. In addition to network inference, he investigates the core dynamics that influence collective behavior, such as mathematical epidemiology and nonequilibrium phase transitions. By integrating rigorous theoretical physics with contemporary computational techniques, he seeks to reveal the fundamental principles that drive complexity in both physical and biological systems.
