Over the past two decades the field of Quantum Foundations experienced a remarkable growth, with many researchers joining the community and with a flourishing of new exciting results. This process has been boosted by the injection of fresh ideas from Quantum Information, which offered a new angle on the counterintuitive world of Quantum Mechanics and inaugurated a new pragmatic approach. Insights from Quantum Information have recently led to reconstructions of Quantum Theory from operational principles and to the discovery of unexpected links between fundamental quantum features.

The aim of Focus Session "Quantum Information for Quantum Foundations" is to provide a forum for the assessment of the recent results at the interface between Quantum Foundations and Quantum Information and to challenge the community to extend the impact of the informational paradigm to other areas of fundamental physics, in particular thermodynamics and field theory. Relevant topics include informational principles for Quantum Theory, exploration of the boundary of quantum correlations, information-processing in general probabilistic theories, fundamental structures in Hilbert space, categorical, modal, and Bayesian approaches.

The Session will feature an invited talk by Valerio Scarani (Centre for Quantum Technologies, Singapore) entitled "Information causality as a physical principle", as well as a number of contributed talks.
