The goal of the workshop is to bring together scientists from soft-matter science and wave physics interested in the design, fabrication and properties of correlated disordered and/or hyperuniform materials. The workshop will consist of invited talks by world-class specialists and a poster session which will be the place for discussions and interactions. The topics covered will include (not restrictive) correlated disorder, photonic glasses, hyperuniformity, hyperuniform materials, localization, polarization and near-field effects, self-assembled colloidal structures, optical and acoustic metamaterials.

Registration is free but mandatory. It includes access to the workshop, coffee breaks, lunches and welcome cocktail. To register, please send the following information to romain.pierrat@espci.fr: First and last names, Affiliation, Email address, Day(s) you will attend (important for lunch organization)
In case you plan to present a poster, send a title and the list of authors.
Number of attendees limited to 70.
Deadline for registration: September 21, 2018
