The central aim of this workshop was to bring together four different research communities to understanding quasicrystals (QCs) and aperiodic order: QCs in materials science, QCs in soft matter, QCs in partial differential equations and QCs in aperiodic tilings. Moreover, the workshop capitalised on recent progress by giving researchers a forum to discuss how different approaches can be most effectively combined to tackle and solve the big open problems in the field.
