Modeling and Simulating Biocomplexity for Mathematicians and Physicists Program: Available to Ph.D. students, post-doctoral students and faculty members in mathematics, and physicists who are interested in applying their knowledge in the biological sciences. This workshop is dedicated to assisting theoreticians who wish to switch their interests into biology. Thus, no biological background will be assumed (though general background reading is of course helpful). Preference will be given to those for whom this experience is their first, or one of their first, in theoretical biology. Mathematicians should have had some experience in applying mathematics to some other area; please indicate this experience in your statement of current research interests.
