Mathematical and computational modelling in Immunology
Meeting - Cambridge, United Kingdom
Organised by the BSI Mathematical Modelling Affinity Group and the British Society for Immunology, 8 - 9 May 2013 Microsoft Research, Cambridge, UK
The aim of this workshop is to bring together scientists working in the areas of experimental and theoretical immunology, to discuss current challenges on lymphocyte development, receptor diversity, lineage commitment, cellular signalling and host-pathogen interactions. The main goals of the meeting will be:
To bring together researchers and clinicians from a variety of backgrounds to discuss the importance of modelling and mathematical approaches in Immunology.
To encourage inter-disciplinary (specifically mathematics and immunology) discussions in order to guide the development of new mathematical models, given the experimental and clinical data.
To expose post-graduate students, working in this area, to current immunological challenges and open questions.
Draft programme topics
T cell receptor: kinetics and early signalling.
Modelling lymphocyte fate.
Kinase and intra-cellular signalling.
Modelling T cell dynamics.
T cell development.
Viral dynamics.
Pharmacokinetics.
In vivo imaging.
Computational modelling.
