   Fax: \nDescription: Hallmarks of criticality\, such as power-laws and se
 lf-similarity typical for order-disorder phase transitions\, have been fou
 nd in many complex systems in nature ranging from fault networks to biolog
 ical networks. In particular\, biological neuronal systems are often thoug
 ht to be organized in such a way that they optimize their information proc
 essing and storage capabilities. This is supported by studies\, which have
  indicated that neuronal networks in vivo and in vitro can self-organize t
 o a critical state. In this talk\, I will critically review some of the ev
 idence for criticality — potentially emerging not in the form of a criti
 cal point but as an extended critical region or Griffith’s phase — bot
 h from a data point of view and a theoretical modelling point of view. The
  focus will be on the failure of rock samples and fluid-induced seismicity
 \, such as encountered in enhanced geothermal systems and hydraulic fractu
 ring\, as well as information processing and memory consolidation in neuro
 nal systems and the spreading of zoonotic diseases.
