Speakers
Description
This minisymposium brings together members of the Mathematical Biosciences Institute (MBI) community to highlight the latest mathematical methods, models, and applications inspired by biological questions. The session showcases the breadth of mathematical biology, including stochastic and continuum models of molecular and cellular processes, network dynamics in infectious diseases and ecological systems, and data-informed modeling in biomedical applications.
Speakers will present research that integrates innovative mathematical techniques with real-world biological problems, reflecting both methodological development and biological insight. The session also celebrates the ongoing impact of MBI by featuring former postdoctoral fellows and visitors whose research, collaborations, and career trajectories have been shaped by their experience at the Institute.
Overall, this minisymposium emphasizes methodological innovation, interdisciplinary collaboration, and community building within mathematical biology, with a focus on integrating mathematical modeling and biological insight to foster discussions that inspire new directions in the field.
This minisymposium aims to foster inclusive and respectful environment for scientific exchange, promote cross-disciplinary interaction, and encourage new collaborations across diverse communities engaged in mechanistic and data-driven biological modeling.
