The Mathematical Biosphere: From Cells to Ecosystems


Okanagan Symposium in Mathematical Biology


October 12th

11am - 4:00pm

ARTS Atrium

University of British Columbia Okanagan Campus

Mathematical Biology has emerged as a well-established and influential field of study in biology and mathematics, and UBC Okanagan is at the geographic centre of  an active and dynamic community of research in this field.  This symposium will showcase the cutting edge and innovative mathematical biology research being carried out at universities in BC, Alberta, Washington and Idaho.  The symposium will also provide a fertile venue for collaborations within the mathematical biology community, and will also provide a unique and timely opportunity for UBC Okanagan scientists in all research areas to form new collaborations with the mathematical biology community.  This symposium will be especially timely with the new hire in Sustainability, the new directorship of the OSI, and the emerging research groups in optimization and community ecology.
