UPoN 2028

Title: Unsolved Problems of Noise 

Dates & Venue:

• Dates: June 5–9, 2028
• Host: Virginia Tech, Blacksburg, Virginia

Noise, fluctuations and variability are fundamental features of complex systems, often revealing information that cannot be captured by deterministic signals alone. Since 1996, the Unsolved Problems on Noise (UPoN) conference has brought together researchers from diverse disciplines to explore these phenomena and the questions they raise.

UPoN 2028, the 11th edition of the conference, hosted by Virginia Tech, continues this tradition by providing an interdisciplinary forum to share ideas, discuss scientific challenges, and explore unsolved problems involving noise and fluctuations.

Through its double-blind review process and collaborative atmosphere, UPoN encourages researchers to look beyond noise as a limitation and explore its potential as a source of deeper insight into complex systems.

Submissions addressing open theoretical challenges, unresolved physical mechanisms, or non-intuitive behaviors in noisy systems are especially encouraged.

Submission guidelines, manuscript formatting specifications and registration details will be published shortly.
