Workshop on Mathematical Biology and Nonlinear Analysis

这是一项为10名美国初级研究人员提供旅行支持的提案，他们将参加2014年12月19日至21日在迈阿密大学珊瑚山墙校区举行的数学生物学和非线性分析研讨会。该研讨会将侧重于数学方法的应用研究非线性方程模型的生物过程，特别是在生态学，流行病学和进化理论。会议将为初级研究人员提供与这些领域的领先研究人员互动的机会。研讨会将由领先的科学家进行全体演讲，并将举行专题会议，研究人员将介绍他们的想法和结果。会议的目的之一是扩大教育，刺激初级研究人员和代表性不足的群体的研究。NSF的资助对于实现这一目标至关重要。

This is a proposal to provide travel support for ten U.S. based junior researchers to attend the Workshop on Mathematical Biology and Nonlinear Analysis, which will be held at the Coral Gables campus of the University of Miami, December 19-21, 2014. The Workshop will focus on the applications of mathematical methods for studying nonlinear equations that model biological processes, especially in ecology, epidemiology, and evolutionary theory. The conference will provide opportunities for junior researchers to interact with leading researchers in these areas. The workshop will feature plenary lectures by leading scientists and will hold special topic sessions where researchers will present their ideas and results. One of the aims of the conference is to broaden the education and stimulate the research of junior researchers and those from underrepresented groups. NSF funding is vital in achieving this goal.
