Antonio DeSimone
Cell motility is key as coordinated by shape changes. Locomotion strategies employed by unicellular organisms and questions about of how shape can be controlled.
Locomotion by shape control using a variety of methods: modeling, theory, and numerical simulation, observations at the microscope, manufacturing of prototypes.
Alfio Quarteroni
Mathematical and numerical models for the cardiovascular flow: integrating spatial and time scales, representative applications and open issues.
Lev Truskinovsky
We'll focus on several fundamental ideas in the mathematical modeling of activity in living systems. The four main themes of the course will be: active drift, active rigidity, active contractions and active motility.
Benoit Perthame
Based on mathematical analysis, this course will provide a hierarchy of the most commonly used models to predict the evolution of cancers in medical treatments. Specific questions that will be addressed are

Benoit Perthame
Based on mathematical analysis, this course will provide a hierarchy of the most commonly used models to predict the evolution of cancers in medical treatments. Specific questions that will be addressed are
- Cell multiplication: models for proliferative and quiescent cells (ODE, PDEs, therapy)
- Fluid mechanical models and effect of nutrients
- The incompressible limit and free boundary problems
- Cell cycle, the actions of drugs, the role of circadian rhythm
- Resistance to therapy
