October 25-27, 2019, Department of Mathematics, Penn State University
OUTLINE
Mathematical models and methods are finding ever wider applications, particularly in life sciences. This workshop will focus on the development and analysis of macroscopic models, described by PDEs.
The plenary talks are expected to be of expository nature, i.e. not technical, but of high scientific level. The primary audience of the workshop will consist of graduate students and young researchers. Together with local graduate students, postdocs and junior faculty, a number of young researchers will be invited from other institutions, covering their travel and local expenses. All participants will have an opportunity to present their work in short talks or within a poster session.
