Mathematical Methods and Modeling of Biophysical Phenomena - 2011
Foz do Iguaçu, Paraná , de 20/03 até 26/03, 2011
This is part of a series of workshops organized by IMPA aiming at bringing together a multidisciplinary group of scientists to study problems in the biophysical sciences upon which mathematics may have an impact.
This year’s main topics are:
- Inverse Problmes in the Applied Sciences
- Modelling in Biology, Ecology, and Epidemiology
- Reaction-Diffusion Equations and Kinetic Theory
- Identification and Inverse Problems in Biology
- Structured-Population Dynamics
