Yves Couder (1941-2019) had a tremendous scientific impact in such fields as turbulence, dendritic growth, the Saffman-Taylor instability, plant morphogenesis and walking droplets, as well as in many disparate areas of non-linear physics, ranging from biological self-organisation to urban development. This meeting, organized jointly by MSC and ENS, brought together scientists working in these fields who have been inspired by the man and/or his work. It highlighted new avenues of science in the field of non-linear condensed matter physics.
The meeting was organized by M. Ben Amar (ENS-PSL, Physics Dept), F. Petrelis (ENS-PSL, Physics Dept), M. Labousse (ESPCI-PSL, Gulliver), F. C. Benoit (U-Paris-Cité, Diderot), A. Daerr (U-Paris-Cité, MSC), V. Fleury (U-Paris-Cité, MSC), E. Fort (U-Paris-Cité, Inst. Langevin), A. Goriely (Chairman, Maths Institute, Oxford), L. Limat (Chairman, U-Paris-Cité, MSC), S. Metens (U-Paris-Cité, MSC), M. Rabaud (U-Paris-Saclay, FAST).
