Spring: Cardiovascular Physiology and Biofluids

Welcome to the spring quarter page for the Special Year in Mathematical Biology. The educational program comprises a full year course `Mathematical Modeling in Biology', a weekly seminar series, two three day minisymposium( Cardiac,Biofluids) and an informal student/post doc seminar. Visitors remaining only the winter quarter are visiting graduate students.


Course 675-3: Mathematical Modeling in Biology

As part of the Special Year in Mathematical Biology, the department of Mathematics will host a course given by visiting lecturers. For more information, contact Hans Othmer.
