Bonn Conference on Mathematical Life Sciences
Mathematical modelling and analysis are nowadays essential for all fields of the life sciences, ranging from basic research to clinical application. To discuss the state of the field and potential future development, please join us in Bonn, April 17-20, 2023.
We have put together an exciting scientific program with eight keynote speeches and conference tracks on
- Systems Biology
- Integrative Pathway Modelling
- Mathematical Image Analysis
- Computational Immunology
- Chemoinformatics and Computational Drug Design
- Single Cell Analysis
- Mathematical Biology
- Dynamics of Cellular and Neuronal Networks
- Computational Protein Modelling and Design
The conference is jointly organized by the Clusters of Excellence Hausdorff Center for Mathematics (HCM) and ImmunoSensation2, the Transdisciplinary Research Areas (TRA) “Mathematics, Modelling and Simulation of Complex Systems” and “Life and Health”, and the Interdisciplinary Research Unit Mathematics and Life Sciences.
The conference will be followed by a hackathon and workshop to which all interested participants can contribute. This events will provide space and time for jointly working on new ideas
