Description |
|
| Objectives: This collaborative workshop aims to help build a strong collaboration network of women working on problems in mathematical biology, by facilitating the formation of new collaborative research groups and encouraging them to continue to work together after the workshop. Junior women (tenure track faculty, post-docs and advanced graduate students) in biology, mathematics and related fields are encouraged to apply. The format of this workshop is designed to maximize the opportunities to collaborate: There will be four teams. Each team will be led by two senior women researchers and will work collaboratively on a specific project. Team members will be chosen from applicants and will consist of junior researchers from both mathematics and biology. Team members can express their project preference in their application Each team will work intensely and present their findings at the end of the workshop. Each team is expected to continue their research and obtain results for a joint publication. Projects: Aerodynamics of spider ballooning; sleep, circadian rhythms and pain; blood flow autoregulation in the kidney; and modeling the effects of antimicrobial therapy on gut microbiota and Clostridium difficile |
