Theoretical and Experimental Quantitative Cell Biology
Giersch – Summer school & International Conference
Venue: FIAS
ATTENTION: The event will be postponed due to the coronavirus. A new date will be announced shortly. The scientific networks DynaMem, CMMS, ‘Xidian-FIAS Joint Research Center’ (XF-JRC), the Rhein-Main Universities, and the graduate program GRADE – iQbio are pleased to offer an international summer school on theoretical and experimental quantitative Cell Biology. The summer school consists of a 3 day conference with leading scientists in the field followed by a practical part completed by theory lectures in the other 3 days.
A simultaneous quantitative recording of different, partially complementary properties on different scales of a biological system enables the conception of mathematical and computer based models for their description and, out of it derived, their knowledge based experimental or therapeutically manipulation. Multi-scale and multi-physics models of biological systems facilitate an experimentally provable and distinct formulation of the properties of biological processes and allow a hypothesis-driven optimization of following experiments.
The aims of our Giersch – Summer school & International Conference are:
- We aim to foster exchange between experimental and theoretical research by creating a platform for networking
- We aim to present cutting edge science in the afore mentioned research field
- We aim to present cutting edge methods from the experimental and theoretical field of multiscale biology
