Experimental Chaos

Neuroscience was the topic of several talks and papers. Emerging themes appear to be the control of neuronal activity and the construction of hybrid neuron-circuit systems, and that of using nonlinear data analysis techniques for the characterization of physiological pathologies. It was shown that these approaches can be applied to cardiac arrhythmias and detection of problems in EEG signals. Synchronization of chaos in optical systems was also presented. New topics that were presented were Ecology and Traffic dynamics. Also, ecological dynamics showed that state space concepts can also be applied to populations and insect networks. Topics include: Chemistry, Electronics, Geophysics and Astrophysics, Neuroscience and Physiology, Data Analysis, Applications, Traffic, Combustion, Optics, Hydrodynamics, Condensed Matter, Synchrony, Dynamo, and Ecology.
