Conference Organization: "Correlations in novel quantum materials"
Materials with strongly correlated quantum particles are at the forefront of present solid state research. Understanding the experimental properties of novel quantum materials crucially relies on the application of cutting-edge analytical and numerical tools.
Together with Thomas Schäfer and Laura Classen, I have organized a theory workshop in Stuttgart in 2021 (online), 2022 and 2023 which aims at bringing together world-leading experts to advance the current perspective on important questions of the field: What are the signatures of quantum order in newly synthesized experimental setups? Which aspects of quantum materials can be described on the model level? What are the computational and algorithmic boundaries hindering the solution of the many-body problem? What is the nature of phase transitions between these novel states of matter?

Conference Organization: "Strange Metals in Quantum Materials and Quantum Emulators"
Strange metals are one of the most prominent frontiers of condensed matter physics. While conventional metals are well described by Landau’s Fermi liquid theory – i.e. a quantum liquid of long-lived, local, electron-like quasiparticles – strange metals defy this paradigm. Here, the local low-energy excitations are extremely short lived and the adiabatic connection to free electrons breaks down. As a consequence, strange metals display a multitude of unusual experimental phenomena, including anomalous charge transport (for example linear in temperature and magnetic field scaling of resistance), singular thermodynamics, and characteristic dynamical scaling.
This workshop in December 2023 at the Physikzentrum Bad Honnef aims at bringing together key figures in the research on strange metals. A particularly important mission is the fruitful cross-talks between experimentalists working on a variety of platforms, as well as theorists with different perspectives of the problem.
