Numerical and mathematical modeling for biological
and medical applications: deterministic, probabilistic
and statistical description

This special volume gathers research works that have been conducted dur-
ing the 23rd edition of the summer school CEMRACS, which took place at
CIRM (Luminy, France) from July 16th to August 24th, 2018. The topic of this
CEMRACS session was Numerical and mathematical modeling for biological
and medical applications: deterministic, probabilistic and statistical descrip-
tion. The CEMRACS (Centre d'Eté Mathématique de Recherche Avancée en
Calcul Scientifique), initiated by Yvon Maday and Frédéric Coquel in 1996,
takes place every summer and consists in two parts: one week of course, and
five weeks of intensive research period on projects gathering young and senior
researchers.

The CEMRACS'18 has been dedicated to the application of mathematics
to natural sciences. For several years, application of mathematics to biology or
medicine has become a major field of interest. Important progresses have been
made in multiscale and multiphysics modeling, for both theoretical and numer-
ical aspects. These simulations can be viewed as an alternative to in vivo or in
vitro experiments and may be referred to as in silico experiments. A major ad-
vantage of these in silico experiments is that they do not require invasive proce-
dures and can be easily used to elaborate/test different scenarii. This volume of
ESAIM:ProcS gathers some contributions on mathematical and numerical mod-
els in the biomedical field, which are the result of works conducted during this
summer school and which cover a wide variety of problems that may be encoun-
tered in natural sciences. More than 130 researchers from all around the world
have participated to this event, making CEMRACS'18 edition a great success.
