The subject of the school will be mathematical methods applied to the study of cell and molecular biology. The goal of the school is to offer doctoral students and young post-doctoral researchers a presentation of some mathematical techniques widely used in modelling problems in cell physiology and proliferation, together with a review of a selection of some such problems of contemporary relevance. Termoli is a pleasant seaside town in southern Italy, on the Adriatic coast. It features a tiny medieval village perched on a rocky promontory thrust out on the sea, as well as a modern part towards the interior and along the beaches north and south of the rock.
Weather is mild to warm, sunny most of the time.
Do not forget your bathing suit. From the city port, the splendid Tremiti Isles can be reached by boat in about one hour, and are likely to be the destination of a daily trip. Duration of the school is two weeks, including 10 days of classes, Monday through Friday. Each day there will be 8 lecture units of 40 min by the staff and by invited speakers, practice sessions and lectures contributed by participants. The language of the school is English.
