Third French Regional Conference on Complex Systems
May 31 – June 02, 2023, in Le Havre, France
FRCCS 2023 is an opportunity to exchange and promote the cross-fertilization of ideas by presenting recent research work, industrial developments, and original applications. Special attention is given to research topics with a high societal impact from the complexity
science perspective.
*FRCCS 2023* <https://iutdijon.u-bourgogne.fr/ccs-france/>
Selected submissions of unpublished work will be invited for publication in a special issue (fast track procedure) of the journal: Complexity, <https://www.hindawi.com/journals/complexity/>
There are a small number of competitive PhD studentships (fellowships) at Durham University (https://www.durham.ac.uk/homepage/) Computer Science (https://www.durham.ac.uk/departments/academic/computer-science/)
Distributed computing and algorithms is one of the areas of interest, particularly within the NESTiD research group ( https://nestid.webspace.durham.ac.uk/).
The turnaround is very tight, however, for the first scheme (March 2nd)(DDS) and May 8th for the second scheme (DTP). Both offer international funding.
Roughly:
- The student needs to be in touch with potential supervisors(s) with a good research idea,
Then apply at https://www.durham.ac.uk/departments/academic/computer-science/postgraduate/research/
Supervisors need to nominate students (with the proposal) for the fellowships below (funding is very competitive).

The Visual Theology Journal is a scientific, peer-reviewed open, access periodical. The journal is organized to discuss theoretical issues related to the visual aspects of the representation and translation of theological knowledge and visual-semiotic parameters of religious practices in the past and present.
The journal provides opportunities for independent, critical, and responsible reflection in line with the current interest in iconology, sacred architecture, hierology, sacred art, the role of visual images in theological discourse, sacred practices, and in the organization of cultural space.
Editors' Highlights
The aim is to provide a convenient snapshot of some of the most exciting work published in the various research areas at Nature Communications.

"Global Art and Psychology Seminar", a multi-hub conference about music, art, and
creativity, taking place between 14-16 September 2023:
https://sites.google.com/view/gaps2/home
This conference aims to offer students and early career researchers (including MA, MSc, and doctoral students, as well as postdocs) all around the globe an innovative platform through which ideas, experiences, insights, and knowledge about (the relationship between) music, art, and creativity can be shared in an inclusive and rigorous way.
Public Services and Blockchain: Why, why not, what, and how?
The TOKEN project has worked with four real-life use cases in smart cities to build, test, and pilot how distributed ledger technologies (DLTs), such as blockchain, can be used in public services. Bringing together policymakers, researchers, developers, and public officials from different levels of government, front-runner thinkers, and industry, the event will share learnings from concrete use cases and insight into what the future might hold for DLTs in public services and beyond.
The event will be organized on 14 March 2023, 2:00 PM – 6:00 PM CET
Live at the Old Town Hall of Leuven, Belgium – online via Teams

France's Digital Strategy for Education calls for the development of “digital commons”
The French Ministry of Education published its Digital Strategy for 2023-2027.
https://www.education.gouv.fr/strategie-du-numerique-pour-l-education-2023-2027-344263
The general strategy has four main objectives:
- To strengthen national and local cooperation between education stakeholders
- Developing students' digital skills
- Provide teachers with a clear offer of digital tools and resources
- Develop the robustness, security, accessibility, quality and environmental responsibility of IT tools
Overall, the digital strategy for education hints at an increase in the use of free and open-source software for all parts related to the French education system, with a particular focus on providing students with appropriate training.
The 13th edition of the EUI's flagship conference, The State of the Union, will occur in Florence on 4 – 6 May. This year's edition, "Building Europe in times of uncertainty," will gather high-level political leaders, journalists, and experts from academia to discuss the challenges facing Europe today. #SOU2023’s panels, conversations, and addresses will foster reflection on key policy areas, including:

Multidisciplinarity, interdisciplinarity, and transdisciplinarity in health research, services, education, and policy: 1. Definitions, objectives, and evidence of effectiveness
Understand the difference between Multidisciplinarity, interdisciplinarity, and transdisciplinarity.
- Multidisciplinarity draws on knowledge from different disciplines but stays within their boundaries.
- Interdisciplinarity examines, combines, and harmonizes connections between disciplines to create a well-resolved whole.
- The scientific, social, and health sciences are integrated with the humanities and go beyond their conventional limits thanks to transdisciplinarity.
