DESCRIPTION:Claudia Scheimbauer\n(MPIM Bonn)\nAfter giving an introduction
  to functorial field theories I will explain a natural generalization ther
 eof\, called "twisted" field theories by Stolz-Teichner. The definition us
 es the notion of lax or oplax natural transformations of strong functors o
 f higher categories for which I will sketch a framework. I will discuss th
 e fully extended case\, which gives a comparison to to Freed-Teleman's "re
 lative" boundary field theories. Finally\, I will explain some examples\, 
 one of which is given by factorization homology and whose target is the hi
 gher Morita category of E_n-algebras\, bimodules\, and intertwiners\, and 
 generalizations thereof.
