2019 CHALLENGE WORKSHOP

Mathematical Modeling of Biomedical Problems

The 14th Workshop brought together experts from industry, clinical practice, preclinical research and mathematics associacted to biomedical modeling. It took place at the Erlangen Castle on December 12-13, 2019.

Challenges

Mathematical modeling and computing in biomedicine is a key ingredient for future developments in the field. Challenges arise from complexity of the underlying biology and other chemical and physical techniques involved in medical diagnosis and treatment. From a clinical perspective mathematical models are desired to improve and quantify the understanding and treatment of diseases, while from an industrial perspective they are needed to design and improve devices or drugs. This calls for a diversity of mathematical techniques ranging from differential equations and stochastics to image processing and data analysis, which need to be brought together in order to tackle relevant problems.
