Mathematics in Medicine Study Groups (MMSGs) are workshops for interaction between mathematicians and academic and industrial experimentalists working within the life sciences. These week-long meetings have previously been held in Nottingham, Oxford and Strathclyde. Researchers from experimental and industrial laboratories are invited to present technical problems for study in working sessions with leading mathematicians from the academic community. Problems may come from a variety of subject areas, but should be amenable to mathematical modelling and analysis. In a week of brainstorming and mathematical modelling there is usually enough time to generate and assess many ideas for solving the problem, and usually some of the ideas are checked in more detail. A full report of the Study Group's work on the problem is produced after the meeting. Follow up meetings will take place later to determine how to take the research further. The MMSGs have served to establish strong links between experimentalists and mathematicians.

XIII: Pacific Symposium on Biocomputing (Fairmond Orchid, Big Island of Hawaii, from 2008-01-05 09:00 to 2008-01-08 18:00) — by abandieri

Developing tools, techniques, algorithms, and mathematical theory to integrate modeling and simulation from the micro to the macro-scale is important in biocomputing. This session aims to foster the interactive environment for researchers working on different scales of biological problems, so that more collaborations and activities to bridge multi-scales will be initiated. Specifically, two aspects are emphasized in this session: physics-based modeling and simulation at individual different scales, as well as modeling and simulation for problems across scales. The topics will cover scales of molecules, cells, tissues, organs, up to organisms.
