Upcoming MDPI Conferences (1)
Barcelona, Spain
We are pleased to announce that Entropy 2026: Exploring Complexity and Information in Science will be held in Barcelona, Spain, from 1 to 3 July 2026.
Organized by MDPI's open access journal Entropy (ISSN 1099-4300; IF: 2.0), this international conference will bring together researchers and practitioners working across complex systems, information theory, artificial intelligence, statistical physics, quantum information, thermodynamics, and related interdisciplinary fields. We are delighted to see strong academic engagement, with submissions from institutions such as the University of Cambridge, Princeton University, and the Eindhoven University of Technology.
Join an inspiring international community, attend high-level scientific presentations, and engage with the latest advances at the forefront of research in complexity and information science.
