This project will provide travel support for graduate students and junior faculty to attend the Conference on Applications of Analysis to Mathematical Biology (AAMB), to be held in May of 2007 at Duke University. The central theme of the conference is the application of analysis, broadly construed, to the mathematical modeling of biology systems. The principal goal of AAMB is to advance the field of mathematical biology on various fronts, in part, via the gathering of a number of highly-respected mathematical biologists and applied mathematicians, who have agreed to present keynote lectures. The lecture topics represent a number of exciting and important fields in mathematical biology, including mathematical cardiology, renal physiology, neurobiology, developmental biology, periodic and dynamical diseases, cancer, and calcium dynamics. By providing travel support, AAMB will facilitate the exposure of graduate and undergraduate students to state-of-the-art current research in mathematical biology.As noted by M. C. Reed in an article published in the Notices of the AMS: "Although there is a long history of the applications of mathematics to biology, only recently has mathematical biology become an accepted branch of applied mathematics." To advance the field of mathematical biology, the conference will bring together pioneers in both applied mathematics and biology. Also, recognizing that a commitment to nurturing young scientists is essential to the continued growth and success of a field, AAMB will attract junior participants (graduate students and junior faculty) by providing travel support, by offering free food, by making sure that keynote lectures are accessible, and, last but not the least, by including in the list of keynote lecturers role models for women and underrepresented minorities.

本计画将提供研究生与初级教师参加将于2007年5月在杜克大学举行的数学生物学分析应用会议之旅费补助。 会议的中心主题是分析的应用，广泛地解释，生物系统的数学建模。AAMB的主要目标是在各个方面推进数学生物学领域，部分是通过聚集一些备受尊敬的数学生物学家和应用数学家，他们同意发表主题演讲。讲座主题代表了数学生物学中一些令人兴奋和重要的领域，包括数学心脏病学，肾生理学，神经生物学，发育生物学，周期性和动力性疾病，癌症和钙动力学。通过提供旅行支持，AAMB将促进研究生和本科生接触最先进的数学生物学研究。C.里德在一篇文章中发表的通知的AMS：“虽然有一个悠久的历史应用数学的生物学，只是最近才数学生物学成为一个公认的分支的应用数学。“为了推进数学生物学领域的发展，会议将汇集应用数学和生物学领域的先驱。此外，认识到培养年轻科学家的承诺是一个领域的持续增长和成功的关键，AAMB将吸引初级参与者（研究生和初级教师）通过提供旅行支持，通过提供免费食物，通过确保主题讲座是可访问的，最后但并非最不重要的是，通过在主题讲师名单中包括女性和代表性不足的少数民族的榜样。
