In this talk I will discuss the universal properties of transport phenomena in TTbar-deformed conformal field theories. TTbar-deformed CFTs are exactly solvable and admit a number of approaches, each of which is seemingly unrelated. Amongst them, for our purpose, which is to study transport phenomena in TTbar-deformed CFTs, we make use of the following: integrability and holography. I will apply these two approaches to study non-equilibrium steady states and Drude weights, finding perfect agreement. I will also discuss a curious connection between TTbar-deformed CFTs and an integrable cellular automaton model called the Rule 54 chain. ------- Part of the London Integrability Journal Club.
