Exploring the Future of Computing in Matter
The field of computing is evolving beyond traditional electronic systems, with researchers exploring novel ways to process information using biochemical, mechanical, and optical systems. The Infomatter Symposium on the Fundamentals of Computing in Matter brings together leading scientists and researchers working on these innovative approaches.
This one-day event will showcase cutting-edge research into how matter itself can be leveraged for computation—from self-organising biochemical networks to photonic computing and neuromorphic materials. The symposium aims to foster interdisciplinary collaboration, connecting experts from different domains to discuss shared challenges, emerging techniques, and groundbreaking discoveries.
Attendees will have the opportunity to engage with an exciting lineup of speakers from leading institutions across Europe. Talks will cover a broad spectrum of topics, including:
- The physical principles underpinning computing in matter
- New paradigms in sensing, learning, and information processing
- Interdisciplinary approaches spanning physics, chemistry, and engineering
Keynote Speakers:
- Zorana Zeravcic (ESPCI, France)
- Sylvain Gigan (École Normale Supérieure, Paris, France)
- Wilfred van der Wiel (University of Twente, Netherlands)
- Wilhelm Huck (Radboud University, Netherlands)
- Liesbeth Janssen (Eindhoven University of Technology, Netherlands)
- Marianne Bauer (Delft University of Technology, Netherlands)
- Nachi Stern (AMOLF, Netherlands)
