DESCRIPTION:\nThe workshop "FAU²: Quantum Gravity Meets Quantum Informati
 on – Foundations\, Frameworks and Frontiers” focuses on the rapidly de
 veloping interface between quantum gravity\, quantum foundations\, and qua
 ntum information theory. Recent advances have shown that concepts such as 
 quantum reference frames\, entanglement and geometry\, quantum thermodynam
 ics in gravitational settings\, measurement and observers in diffeomorphis
 m-invariant systems\, black hole information\, and open quantum systems of
 fer new insights into the structure of spacetime and the formulation of gr
 avitational dynamics. At the same time\, gravitational physics poses profo
 und foundational challenges to quantum theory\, particularly regarding tim
 e\, subsystems\, and the role of information.\nThe workshop brings togethe
 r researchers from these areas to exchange perspectives\, establish a shar
 ed conceptual framework\, and discuss both foundational and technical deve
 lopments. Topics will include quantum gravity theories and relation with i
 nformation and philosophy\, holography\, relational approaches\, decoheren
 ce\, quantum clocks\, and information-theoretic aspects of emergent geomet
 ry. By promoting focused interdisciplinary dialogue and identifying common
  research directions\, the meeting aims to clarify open questions and init
 iate new collaborations.\nConfirmed invited speakers include:\n\nMehdi Ass
