VII ICTP-SAIFR Southern-Summer School on Mathematical Biology
De 15 a 21 de Janeiro de 2018
VII ICTP-SAIFR Southern-Summer School on Mathematical Biology
Start time: January 15, 2018
Ends on: January 21, 2018
Location: São Paulo, Brazil
Venue: IFT-UNESP
Description:
This school is aimed at graduate students in Physics, Mathematics, Ecology and Epidemiology, having at least a basic knowledge of calculus and differential equations. Lectures cover the basics of population dynamics and are supplemented with modelling exercises addressing mainly problems in ecology, epidemiology and evolution. Undergraduate students with exceptional records are also encouraged to apply. Limited funds are available for travel and local expenses.
This activity will be followed by the €˜School on Physics Applications in Biology€™. Candidates may apply either for one or both schools, and preference will be given to PhD students in South America. There is no registration fee and limited funds are available for travel and local expenses.
Please note that acceptance cannot be taken for granted, as we expect a much higher number of applications than the maximum number of participants. We advise the candidates to carefully complete the application form, providing enough information for the selection committee to take a decision.
