• A Challenge led sandpit on structure and function in airways disease - hosted by the BIOREME network

  • Start
    21 Sep 2023
  • End
    26 Sep 2023
  • Location
    Imperial College London

  BIOREME (integrating data-driven BIOphysical modelling into REspiratory MEdicine) is an EPSRC-funded network of researchers, industry and patient representatives at the interface of mathematical modelling and respiratory medicine. Find out more at bioreme.net or e-mail contact@bioreme.net

  The network are hosting a Research Sandpit on structure and function in airways disease.  This sandpit will bring together academic, clinical, industry and experts to explore the challenges and opportunities around the role of biophysical modelling in the understanding and treatment of airways diseases. Attendees will be eligible to apply for pump-prime funding (up to £10,000) to support project proposals generated at the event.

  When and where
  Session 1 (online): 2 – 5pm, 21st Sept
  Session 2 (in-person) 9.30 – 5pm, 26th Sept, Imperial College London

  Confirmed speakers
  To prime discussion, the event will start with research talks from academic and clinical experts around two focus areas:
  1. Multi-scale airways disease
  Professor Salman Siddiqui, Imperial College London
  Professor Bindi Brook, University of Nottingham
  Professor Clare Lloyd, Imperial College London
  2. Structure/function and personalised medicine
  Professor Alex Horsley, University of Manchester
  Professor Chantal Darquenne, University of California, San Diego

  Who can participate?
  We encourage a diverse range of expertise to attend including academic, industry, clinical and charity groups with expertise in mathematics, data science, imaging, biological sciences, engineering, as well as medical experts.

• MC2D: Mathematical Challenges in Modelling Cancer Dynamics

  • Start
    11 Oct 2023
  • End
    13 Oct 2023
  • Location
    LJLL, Sorbonne University, Paris

  The workshop Mathematical Challenges in Modelling Cancer Dynamics (MC2D) will take place on October 11-13, 2023, at Laboratoire Jacques-Louis Lions, Sorbonne Université, Paris.

  This workshop, consisting of 4 sessions, aims to address the diverse mathematical challenges arising from mathematical modelling of cancer dynamics, from the analytical and numerical study of these models, to their application and validation with real data, thanks to the interventions of 12 speakers among young and more affirmed researchers.

  Registration is open (until October 2nd) and free. Please find useful information at the following webpage: https://mc2d.sciencesconf.org.

  For any further information, feel free to contact us.
  Please do not hesitate to forward this announcement to your colleagues and all young researchers that could be interested.

• 2023 AUA Academic Workshop on Delay Differential Equations: Applications to Immunology and Infectious Diseases

  • Start
    23 Nov 2023
  • End
    24 Nov 2023
  • Location
    United Arab Emirates University, Al Ain, UAE

  We are pleased to invite you to participate in the 2023 AUA Academic Workshop DDEs-AIIDs. Our goal is to bring together mathematicians and life science scholars at AUA universities, as well as outside of AUA universities, to meet, share, and discuss research interested in mathematical modeling with delay differential equations and their applications to immunology and infectious diseases. There will be a round table discussion on open problems and questions in the context of infectious diseases, cancer, and chronic diseases, as well as future directions in multidisciplinary research.

  Potential topics include but are not limited to the following:
  DDEs mathematical analysis and biological interpretation.
  Models of host-pathogen interactions
  Models of cancer immune response
  Models of immunological regulation
  Therapy and vaccination models
  Models of multiscale immunoepidemiology
  Optimal control with therapy
  Immune response, signaling pathways, and regulatory networks
  
  This Workshop will present new theoretical and numerical methods, enhance interdisciplinary interaction between mathematics and life sciences, and stimulate collaborations in immunobiological modeling.
  The scientific program of the workshop will consist of 50-minute plenary lectures, 30-minute invited lectures and 20-minute contributed talks.
  The participants of AUA universities are exempt from registration fees and will be provided with accommodation and internal transportation.
  We are pleased to announce that the selected papers will be published in the Special Issue "Delay Differential Equations and Applications to Immunology and Infectious Diseases" of "Mathematical Biosciences and Engineering", published by AIMS. Here is the link for submissions.
