Recent developments in statistical physics have focused new attention on the relations between information theory and thermodynamics, and on experiments that characterize directly the violations of detailed balance in driven systems.  This symposium will explore these ideas in simple model systems and in the full complexity of living systems, highlighting both theory and experiment. Speakers will be John Becchofer, Simon Fraser University; Nikta Fakhri, MIT; and David Sivak, Simon Fraser University.
