Description
This minisymposium showcases concrete progress in understanding immunobiology and infections using mathematical and computational methods under real experimental and clinical constraints. The speakers work at the boundary of immunology, medicine, and quantitative science, combining mechanistic modeling with modern computational and statistical tools to provide insights into complex biological processes. Across talks, we emphasize testing hypothesis-driven models against data to improve what we can quantify and predict about infection and immune response.
