The Mathematical Biosciences Institute (MBI) is an institution of higher learning affiliated with the Ohio State University in Columbus, Ohio.MBI Home PageNSF Math Institutes MBI received major funding from the National Science Foundation. The institute offers a vigorous program of research and education, and fosters the growth of an international community of researchers in the mathematical biosciences. History Under the leadership of founding director Avner Friedman, MBI opened its doors in September 2002, holding its first workshop, hosting its first visiting researchers, and starting its first cohort of postdocs in that month. MBI holds 10–12 scientific workshops each year, and hosts about 25 postdoctoral and visiting researchers in residence at any given time. Through its collective events and programs, MBI draws over 1000 visits by researchers in the broadly defined area of mathematical biology throughout the year. MBI’s long term planning is overseen by its Directorate and its Board of Trustees, while its scientific activities are overseen by its Directorate and its Scientific Advisory Committee. Mission The Mathematical Biosciences Institute is organized around three parallel scientific research streams: neuroscience, development%DIFDELCMD < & %%% aging, and community dynamics adaptation. MBI activities are designed to amplify the work of and support the growth of communities of mathematical and statistical scientists who are providing transformational contributions in these broad research streams.%DIFDELCMD < %DIFDELCMD < %%% The stated mission of MBI is to: Support and identify new opportunities for convergent research in the mathematical biosciences. Provide novel mathematical and statistical tools to leverage emerging bioscientific technologies for discovery. Develop and implement innovative training paradigms for the next generation of mathematical bioscientists. In carrying out its mission, MBI adheres to the following guiding principles: Accessibility and Inclusivity: Programming is widely accessible and is designed to promote inclusivity in the mathematical biosciences. Community-Driven Programming: The national/international mathematical biosciences community prioritizes the distribution of funding. Evidence-Based Planning and Assessment: The MBI administrative and governance structure is designed to support the institute’s mission and enable it to be responsive to ongoing evidence-based evaluation and assessment of its programming and to emerging scientific priorities.
