Latsis Symposium 2012 is a high-level conference to be held at ETH Zurich, Switzerland. More information can be be found on the conference web page.

The day preceding the Latsis Symposium, TUE 11 September 2012, is reserved for a SATELLITE WORKSHOP that addresses in three parallel tracks the relation between economics and other quantitative sciences from different viewpoints.

We invite contributed talks (30 min) to these parallel tracks:

1. Econophysics (Track Chair: Tobias Preis, Keynote Speaker: Jean-Philipp Bouchaud, Paris)
2. Modeling financial systems (Track Chair: Stefano Battiston, Keynote Speaker: Rosario N. Mantegna, Palermo)
3. Agent-based Models in Economics (Track Chair: Giorgio Fagiolo, Keynote Speaker: Giovanni Dosi, Pisa)

To submit a contributed talk, please register on the main conference page.
We particularly invite contributions from members of the following scientific communities:

• APFA - Applications of Physics in Financial Analysis
• WEHIA - Workshop on Economic Heterogeneous Interacting Agents
• Econophysics Colloquium

There is a registration fee of CHF 80 for the Satellite workshop, to be paid by every participant via paypal. This covers the service during the lunch and coffee breaks.

Participants, who have registered for the Satellite Workshop, can attend the Latsis Symposium free of charge, without additional registration.

There is a very limited possibility for 3-6 contributed talks (30 min) on each day of the Latsis Symposium. Contributed talks will be selected by the organizers from all submissions to the Satellite Workshop, on a competitive basis. As a reward for being selected, we offer a grant of CHF 500 to support travel and lodging.
