SIAM Workshop on Computational Models and Simulation for Intra-cellular Processes (CM02)

October 4-5, 2002

Washington, DC, USA

Applied Mathematics

Host: Hilton Garden Inn

Description:
The interaction between the mathematical and computational sciences and biology has been growing in importance in the last decade, but it is still a beginning. There is tremendous room for progress. For example, major advances are needed in mathematical and statistical methods to have significant impact on the prediction and control of spatio-temporal cellular behavior. Some specific processes that are amenable to mathematical methods are networks of molecular interactions such as gene-gene, gene-protein, and protein-protein. Applications of such interactions include discovery of functional modules in cellular systems, and rapid and precise identification of targets and design of intervention methods that influence molecular dynamics.

Following is a partial list of themes for the workshop:

Mass Action & Reaction-Kinetics Models For Gene-Protein and Protein-Protein Reactions; Models For Small Concentrations; Deterministic And Stochastic Reaction-Diffusion Models; Molecular Transport Models; Hybrid Models of Analog, Discrete And Asynchronous Dynamics/Processes; Other Related Aspects of Spatio-Temporal Effects Of Cellular Dynamics; Multi-Scale And Multi-Resolution Methods; Scalable Methods.
