Mathematical Biology provides mathematical methods to study the modern biology. There are many mathematical ways to approach biological problems, either by simple mathematical models or computation biology. Partial differential equation plays an important role in both approaches. The main purpose of the workshop is to attract the researchers of partial differential equations to study the problems arising from population dynamics, physiology and cell biology. Modeling and mathematical analysis will be emphasized in the talks of this workshop. The workshop will be held at National Center of Theoretical Science (NCTS), Hsinchu (located at National Tsing Hua University) in Dec. 13-17, 2010. On the first two days, (Dec. 13 and Dec. 14) the subjects of talks will be focused in mathematical modeling in Cell Biology and Physiology. Dec. 15 is off for Taipei city tour. Then on Dec. 16 and Dec. 17, the theme of the talks is Population Dynamics. Besides 50-minute plenary talks, we shall have 30-minute invited talks and 20-minute contributed talks. There is no registration fee. We welcome people to participate the workshop and to deliver a talk.
