An international workshop entitled, "Micro and Macro Systems in Life Sciences", will take place June 8-13, 2015, at the Stefan Banach International Mathematical Center of the Institute of Mathematics of the Polish Academy of Sciences (IM PAN), in Bedlewo, Poland. The workshop's goals are to bring together applied mathematicians and researchers working on various levels of systems describing phenomena in the life sciences along with some medical doctors and biologists in order to exchange ideas and initiate and promote collaborations. Understanding problems in the life sciences is a complex issue and involves the analysis of systems on a variety of micro and macro levels. The topics under consideration will include micro and macro systems in cancer biology, multi-scale modeling in physiology, intracellular and intercellular signaling as well as epidemiology and infectious diseases. Over the past years, the list of mathematical tools that has proven useful in analyzing and understanding biological phenomena has grown tremendously. They include new multi-scale techniques in system theory that bridge across different spatial and temporal scales, new directions in dynamical systems, partial differential equation, control theory and computational techniques. The workshop will emphasize the mathematical tools currently available as well as focus on new tools to be developed in order to address current challenges in the life sciences. The workshop will also bring together researchers from the United States and Europe which will facilitate the establishment of more sustained relationships and catalyze new collaborations. A special effort is made to ensure participation of Ph.D. students and postdoctoral researchers who are in the early stages of their careers to expose them to the wealth of possibilities of research in this field and to discuss career and funding opportunities. The workshop will have substantial participation of women and minorities. Proceedings of the workshop will be published as a special issue in the journal "Mathematical Biosciences and Engineering"

题为“生命科学中的微观和宏观系统”的国际研讨会将于 2015 年 6 月 8 日至 13 日在波兰贝德勒沃波兰科学院数学研究所 (IM PAN) 的 Stefan Banach 国际数学中心举行。该研讨会的目标是将致力于描述生命科学现象的不同系统的应用数学家和研究人员与一些医生和生物学家聚集在一起，以交流想法并发起和促进合作。理解生命科学中的问题是一个复杂的问题，涉及各种微观和宏观层面的系统分析。正在考虑的主题将包括癌症生物学中的微观和宏观系统、生理学中的多尺度建模、细胞内和细胞间信号传导以及流行病学和传染病。 在过去的几年里，被证明对分析和理解生物现象有用的数学工具的数量急剧增加。 它们包括系统论中跨越不同空间和时间尺度的新的多尺度技术、动力系统的新方向、偏微分方程、控制理论和计算技术。 该研讨会将强调当前可用的数学工具，并重点关注为应对生命科学当前挑战而开发的新工具。该研讨会还将汇集来自美国和欧洲的研究人员，这将有助于建立更持久的关系并促进新的合作。我们特别努力确保博士的参与。处于职业生涯早期阶段的学生和博士后研究人员，让他们接触到该领域研究的丰富可能性，并讨论职业和资助机会。妇女和少数族裔将大量参与讲习班。 研讨会论文集将作为特刊发表在《数学生物科学与工程》杂志上
