The European Mathematical Society (EMS) has entitled this year to Biomathematics.

The main objectives of the initative, that is naturally a joint venture with the European Society for Mathematical and Theoretical Biology (ESMTB), are to celebrate the huge increase and importance of applications of mathematics to biology and life sciences in the last years and to foster the feedback loop between life sciences and mathematics for years to come.

In this framework a workshop titled “Mathematics for BioMedicine” will take place in Rome (October 8-11, 2018) at the Accademia dei Lincei and at the National Research Council (CNR). The workshop is supported by Accademia dei Lincei, the groups GNAMPA and GNFM of the  National Institute for High Mathematics (INdAM), the National Research Council (CNR), the Politecnico di Torino, and ESMTB.

Half-day sessions will be held on the following topics:

• Immunology

• Cardiovascular diseases

• Neurology and aging diseases

• Oncology

• Epidemiology

• Endocrinology

• Stem cells and tissue rigeneration

Those who are interested in presenting a seminar can send title and abstract to luigi.preziosi@polito.it beforeMay 31th, 2018.

Thanks to the funds received by the Accademia dei Lincei, the groups GNAMPA and GNFM of the  National Institute for High Mathematics (INdAM), the National Research Council (CNR), the Politecnico di Torino, and ESMTB, it is possible for 30 young researchers to have request the lodging expenses, upon justified request. Please contact Luigi Preziosi (luigi.preziosi@polito.it) – if interested in presenting a seminar (sending title and abstract ) – if requesting a partial support (sending a justified request)
