In this program, we will discuss current challenges and recent advances in Health and Disease. The aim of the program is to explore different mathematical, statistical and computational approaches to integrate experimental and clinical data, and to discuss how mathematical modeling can help to interpret and integrate experimental data, frame and test hypotheses, and suggest novel experiments allowing for more conclusive and quantitative interpretations of biological, immunological and disease-related processes. Among others, the following problems will be addressed in this program: The analysis of disease-related processes occurring across different scales: from the genetic, to the cellular, host and population levels. At the cellular level, the mechanisms by which cells regulate proliferation, death, differentiation, in childhood, adulthood and old age, and how receptor-mediated signaling and intra-cellular receptor trafficking correlate with cellular fate. The mechanisms that can aff...
