Abstract:

Mathematical modeling and computational simulations of biomedical problems work as important tools to understand complex biological and physiological phenomena. Recent advancements in computational mechanics have led to significant developments in the modeling and simulation of biological systems.

This mini-symposium aims to bring together researchers working at the intersection of mathematics, biology, and computational science to present and discuss state-of-the-art methodologies and applications in the field. The focus will be on the use of mathematical modeling, numerical simulation, and mathematical analysis to gain insights into complex biological processes at multiple scales, ranging from cellular dynamics to organ-level phenomena.

Topics of Interest include (but not limited to):

  •      Mathematical modeling and analysis of (multiscale) biological systems
  •      Numerical simulations for biological processes
  •      ODE, PDE and Agent-based models for biological applications
  •      Parameter estimation and model validation in biological systems
  •      Applications in cancer dynamics, wound healing, and biofilm, inflammations etc.
