The 2007 International Conference on Applied Nonlinear Dynamics (ICAND), held in Kauai, Hawaii, was a festschrift held in his honor of his 55th birthday.{{cite web|url=http://www.icand2007.org/|title=ICAND 2007|author=Longhini|publisher=|accessdate=22 April 2015|archive-date=7 May 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150507024820/http://www.icand2007.org/|url-status=dead}}
Honours
In 2004, Bulsara was elected to Fellow of the American Physical Society (APS) for "developing the statistical mechanics of noisy nonlinear dynamical oscillators especially in the theory, application and technology of stochastic resonance detectors."{{cite web|url=http://www.aps.org/units/gsnp/fellowship/index.cfm?year=2004|title=APS Physics – GSNP – APS Fellowship|publisher=|accessdate=22 April 2015}}{{cite news | url=https://www.aps.org/publications/apsnews/200503/upload/spring05_prizes_awards.pdf | title=APS Announces Spring 2005 Prize and Award Recipients | publisher=American Physical Society | date=Spring 2005 | page=6 | accessdate=9 September 2018 }} His festschrift in honor of his 55th birthday, which, for logistic reasons, was held when he was 56.{{citation needed|date=September 2018}}
