The purpose of this workshop was to provide an opportunity for discussion of the latest developments in non-linear analysis and the physical and biological sciences, and the active influence that each exerts on the other. The workshop was dedicated to the memory of Professor Jack Carr. Sir Michael Atiyah, University of Edinburgh, kindly opened the workshop.
