This lecture is presented by
Professor Philip Maini, Director, Wolfson Centre for Mathematical Biology at
the University of Oxford on "Case Studies in Modelling Collective
Cell Motion in Biology".
Date: Monday 14th September 2015.
Time: 3.30 to 4.30pm
Venue: Engineering Lecture Theatre E7, 14 Alliance Lane, Monash University Clayton Campus.
To register: Please complete the Online RSVP form
Professor Maini will review three examples of collective cell motion in biology, ranging from the classical approach through coupled systems of partial differential equations (acid-mediated cell invasion in cancer), to hybrid cellular automata (cranial neural crest cell invasion) to cell sheet dynamics (colorectal crypt homeostasis). It will be shown how these studies have led to new biological predictions which have been validated experimentally and to new, open questions, in mathematical analysis.
