The stay in Bonn is fully financed by HIM, so that successful candidates can apply for leave from their home institutions. We recommend stays of 4 months, but visits as short stays of a few weeks are possible, too.
Amsterdam UMC and the Amsterdam Institute for Global Health and Development are looking for a postdoctoral researcher with experience in modeling of infectious diseases. Deadline June 5th. Job description and all other details can be found here: https://www.academictransfer.com/nl/312473/postdoc-antimicrobial-resistance-modeling-for-global-health-interventions/

Theme of the Workshop:
The 2nd Workshop in Mathematical and Computational Biology aims to bring together the diverse communities of researchers working on topics of importance to biology by means of mathematical and computational methods. This second edition of the workshop will concentrate on the fields of Neuroscience, Bioinformatics, Ecology, and Epidemiology. The themes will continue to rotate in the next editions of the workshop to cover multiple areas, but always keeping the computational and mathematical flavors that have been central to the editions thus far.

Virtual Rooms (Slack Chat and Gather "Bio" Town):
The virtual environments of the workshop will foster interactions among participants and will be the places to ask questions to speakers and connect with other attendees with common interests also outside the time of the talk. Walking around Gather "Bio" Town, you will find the Short Talks and Posters, and breakout tables where you can interact and share ideas. These virtual environments will be available closer to the conference.
Humankind, as well as life on Earth more generally are presently facing unprecedented challenges. Habitat fragmentation and biological invasions, exacerbated by the global climate change, result in elevated species extinction rates coupled with an accelerated loss of biodiversity and new threats posed by alien exotic species invasions of previously virgin territories, especially in the Earth temperate belts, with a huge impact on the entire system for food production. Indeed, human population growth brings the need of a more efficient and sustainable agriculture. The spread of insects from the tropical areas carrying viruses causing outbreaks of new or rare diseases poses another threat. Efficient, sustainable solutions to these problems can only be found though a rigorous scientific approach. There is an urgent need for ground-breaking ideas and better understanding in life sciences, ecology and environmental science. Direct communication and exchange of ideas between experts in relevant research fields is one way to facilitate it. An interdisciplinary forum where knowledge from these different fields can be exchanged would be a first step on the way of addressing these problems hovering over humanity. Precision agriculture requires tools that go beyond the purely biological/ecological settings and mathematical modelling, being widely recognized as a powerful research approach to problems arising in natural sciences, would provide such an instrument. MPDEE 2022 aims to contribute to this debate by bringing together leading researchers in theoretical and mathematical ecology, digital agriculture, evolutionary ecology, mathematical epidemiology and related fields.
Abstract & mini-symposium proposal submission is open, for details see https://sites.google.com/view/mpdee2022/contributions
The conference is planned to take place IN PERSON, although we may be able to accommodate online presentations as well.
IMPORTANT DEADLINES:
March 20: abstract/mini-symposium submission opens April 22: abstract/mini-symposium submission closes April 30: early bird registration closes May 14: registration closes
We are delighted to announce the 8th International Conference on Mathematical Neuroscience (ICMNS 2022). The conference will take place online from July 6th to 8th, 2022, between 14:00 and 18:00 (GMT+2).
ICMNS is an interdisciplinary conference series, bringing together theoretical neuroscientists and mathematicians. The conferences are aimed at scientists interested in using or developing mathematical techniques for neuroscience problems.
It is our pleasure to confirm that this year’s plenary speakers will be:
Danielle Bassett (University of Pennsylvania, USA) Sue Ann Campbell (University of Waterloo, Canada) Thomas Serre (Brown University, USA)
There will be 6 minisymposium sessions, covering a broad set of topics in mathematical neuroscience. Each minisymposium consists of 4 talks, 3 of which will be given by early career researchers.
* Stochastic models for neuronal activity, Organiser: Laura Sacerdote (University of Turin, Italy)
* Patterns and Rhythms in Balanced Neural Networks, Organiser: James MacLaurin (New Jersey Institute of Technology, USA)
* Metastable dynamics in neural circuits, Organiser: Tilo Schwalger (Technische Universität Berlin, Germany)
* Learning (and compressing) stochastic sequences of events, Organiser: Antonio Galves (Universidade de São Paulo, Brasil)
* Nonlinear PDEs of Fokker–Planck type in neuroscience, Organisers: Pierre Jules Abel Roux (University of Oxford, UK) and Susanne Solem (Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Norway)
* Dynamical system of psychiatric disorders, Organisers: Christoffer Alexandersen (University of Oxford, UK) and Louisiane Lemaire (Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, Germany)
In addition, there is an open call for micro-talks, delivered to the whole audience. Micro-talk sessions are one-hour sessions consisting of a sequence of very short introductions (2 minutes, 1 slide) by the presenters to their research, followed by an opportunity to chat with individual presenters about their research in breakout rooms. We encourage micro-talks submissions by researchers from all areas of mathematical neuroscience and at all career stages. Submissions can be made at this link. The submission deadline is the 31st of May at 23:59 (GMT+2).
