Abstract of the scientific content : (first attempt of schedule)
Mathematical modelling in biology and analysis of the resulting equations
are a main challanging scientific problem. This domain interests an increasing
mathematical community in the world as well as biologists, doctors, engineers
in environmental science for their possible applications. The various recent Partial
Differential Equation (PDE) methods and the last most significant progress in this domain
need to be exchanged and developed with Cuba and other countries of the Caribbean area.
The school aims at presenting some of the current approaches in PDE modelling
and mathematical analysis of biological and medical phenomena. It aims
at allowing the researchers and the students of Master’s degree level to acquire
a basic training in that field. This school will cover a wide class of equations
and applications including population dynamics, pattern formation, chemotaxis,
aggregation, biological waves and their implications in developmental biology,
epidemiology and neurosciences. The main tools considered are PDE’s, and other
related fields, as dynamical system and numerical methods.
