The programs aim to transcend traditional academic boundaries and blend the physical sciences and engineering with the social sciences, economics, and policy to foster an exchange of ideas and multidisciplinary collaboration. The programs will consist of keynote and contributed talks, poster sessions, and panel discussions.
