The goal of this workshop is to open a space for discussions of the latest results on statistical mechanics and evolution of out-of-equilibrium systems, with special emphasis on condensed and soft matter systems. It is a two weeks event. The first one is dedicated to the invited and selected talks, followed by a second week of a workshop intended to discuss more technical issues and setting the starting point for long time collaborations between participants.
