An IIAS-ISF Conference
The workshop will deal with experimental evidence for anomalous transport and its theoretical modeling. Scientists have for many years analyzed Stochastic processes, such as diffusion, using Gaussian statistics. Due to experimental advances today anomalous diffusion is observed in many systems. For example, when tracking the motion of mRNA in the live cell, subdiffusion is observed, which is an important case study for cell biology. Another example is blinking quantum dots – a system that is important for nanotechnology applications, and exhibits power law fractal statistics. Recently, the motion of animals, that of spider monkeys, was found to follow statistical rules that deviate sharply from the norm. Our workshop will deal with general principles of such stochastic motion, and the specific problems of each systems will be addressed in specialized sessions.
