This conference is organized on the occasion of the 60th birthday of Jürgen Kurths. It will take place at the historical science campus at the Telegrafenberg in Potsdam, Germany, March 21 and 22, 2013.

The aim of this meeting is to gather scientists from various fields of complex systems science, in particular nonlinear data analysis, synchronization, complex networks, modeling, and applications in Earth system sciences, neuroscience, physiology, and astrophysics, in which Jürgen Kurths contributed. This interdisciplinary conference will be a platform to exchange ideas and knowledge, as well as discuss new directions in complex systems science and its applications from the view of different disciplines.

This conference is intended to bring together Jürgen Kurths' former and recent students, collaborators, and colleagues as well as researchers interested in this interdisciplinary field.

Oral presentations are by invitation only. Poster contributions are highly welcome.
