Objective of meeting:
 
The purpose of the MEDYFINOL meeting is to keep the scientific community updated with the new developments and tendencies in the statistical and nonlinear physics fields, to incentive collaborative international science programs, and to identify and discuss the most relevant issues in the area. Moreover, the meeting will provide scientists the
opportunity to interchange ideas about important developments and applications on the field, contributing in this form to the possible nucleation of new inter-institutional collaborating groups and encouraging the development of scientific collaborations.
