- A long stay (over one month) is preferred.
- Attendance only in the workshops are not possible.
- HIM can only provide a travel lump sum for PhD students who stay at HIM for four weeks or more.
- There will be additional small activities outside the event weeks, and everyone is welcome to organize those.
- Some useful information for guests can also be found here: https://www.mathematics.uni-bonn.de/him/service

The Junior Trimester Program is primarily addressed to PhD students, postdocs and young (assistant) professors. Applicants are expected to have completed their PhD thesis at most 6 years ago.
If a group of junior scientists wants to apply, then every member is asked to complete the application form below. Please do not forget to indicate the name of group leader and the names of the members. The Letter of Intent should contain a project description of the group and may be identical for all members.
The development of mathematical models describing biological phenomena has been an active research field during the last decades. Significant progress in experimental biology provides a large amount of precise quantitative information on many biological systems. This poses the challenge of understanding these processes using well established mathematical and physical models. A particularly difficult task is the development of mathematical tools allowing to analyze systems out of equilibrium. In addition, in many biological problems the study of inverse problems and the methods of control theory are playing an increasingly important role.
During this Junior Trimester Program we will bring together researchers working in classical branches of mathematical biology, as for instance structure population models, renewal equations and reaction-diffusion systems, as well as scientists interested in biological systems in which the lack of equilibrium plays a crucial role in their behavior, or experts in inverse problems with biological applications. Structure population models and reaction-diffusion equations had played a crucial role in areas like population dynamics, epidemiology and understanding pattern formation. There are still a large number of problems in biology in which these classical tools can be useful. At the same time tools of statistical physics and inverse problem theory have an enormous number of potential applications in biology.
The program will offer a series of events focused on these topics and host researchers at all levels on topics related with the one proposed in the trimester.
