Data Science and Biomathematics: an introduction to mathematical modeling applied to biological systems with Matlab

Mathematical models applied to biological systems have been exploited extensively lately in medical and biological sciences. Furthermore, mathematical models can be built from "scratch" (i.e., bottom-up approaches, also known as "white box") or from "data" (i.e., top-down approaches, also known as "black box"). Mathematical models can be used to making sense of data, similar to machine learning-like approach are employed, with the additional advantage of having a better understanding of the system mathematically. Top-down approaches in mathematical models applied to biological systems are represented by tools such as neural networks, whereas the bottom-up approaches are represented by tools such as differential equations.

On this short-course you shall learn the basics of mathematical models applied to biological systems, how it can be used to interpret/exploit experimental data, as a possible alternative to well-known methodologies for data science.

Pre-requisites: it might be interesting if the audience has basic programming skills;

Software used: Matlab and SimBiology

You may want to see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2lTp6zLMgQI for Matlab and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1kGvq8vABvw for simbiology. Symbiology is a software inside Matlab, similar to Simulink.

Workshop on Computational Intelligence and Biomathematics

1st CIBio-2017

Dear all,

We shall have soon the 1st CIBio, an attempt to gather biomathematics and computational intelligence in a single place. 

If you are working with computational intelligence and biomathematics at the same moment, or have interest to know more about, this workshop, in its first edition, might be a nice starting point. 

The workshop shall happen alongside the Brazilian Congress of Computational Intelligence 2017

For more, see.

A crash course in biomathematics: a tutorial

A Crash course in Biomathematics will be present at the Brazilian event called "XIII Congresso Brasileiro de Inteligência Computacional- (CBIC 2017)".

It is a nice opportunity for everyone interested in biomathematics to get to know better the area, and for sure anyone interested in both areas: computational intelligence and biomathematics. The courses are free upon registration at the event. 

Hopefully, see you around!!

Dear all,

I have created the following system, I kindly ask you all to test it, to start using it. I will make modification according to needs and time availability.

European Society for Mathematical and Theoretical Biology Poster Section

The methodology of design and development of new products has been around for a while and applied to the industry for decades with pretty good results. The results were so positive that nowadays one can find quite a few courses, books, papers and alike. On the other hand, the university seems not being able to cope with the digital generation efficiently. E-learning is the promise, but several problems that did not exist in a handful number of students in a classroom do exist. Similarly, a new product will have to achieve a public not always totally known a priori, in some case, when the product is launched, more than eighty percent of the budget has already been spent. On this poster we are going to discuss an ongoing project whose aim is designing and developing a course for biomathematics for a general audience. Our upcoming goal is a prototype that can be implemented online, e.g. webinar or broadcast, or in the traditional way, e.g. classroom. We are going to present what we have done so far, what we intend to do in the upcoming future and what we expect from such a project after (partial) completion.
