Prior Conferences on Computational and Mathematical Population Dynamics were held in Italy, 2004; Brazil, 2007; France, 2010; and in China, 2013. Please visit the website of the conference for full information about the conference. www.math.fau.edu/cmpd5 We negotiated a great rate for the conference participants at Bahia Mar Hotel; at $139 per night per room. The conference schedule with abstracts is now online at http://www.math.fau.edu/cmpd5/daily-schedules.php We have still spots available for contributed talks. If you are interested in attending the conference, please submit your abstract following the instructions at the link http://www.math.fau.edu/cmpd5/abstract_submission.php If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the Organizing Committee Chairpersons: Necibe Tuncer ntuncer@fau.edu or Maia Martcheva maia@ufl.edu. ---------------------------------------------------- from: Kresimir Josic <josic@math.uh.edu> date: Mar 21, 2019, 8:41 AM subject: Junior Scientist Workshop on Advanced Neural Data Analysis 2019 Junior Scientist Workshop on Advanced Neural Data Analysis 2019 https://ctn.zuckermaninstitute.columbia.edu/junior August 26th - 29th 2019, New York City, USA Hosted by the Center for Theoretical Neuroscience at Columbia University Apply here by May 15 (11:59 p.m. EST): https://goo.gl/forms/lOXKaA9K8LeY4fch1 ---------------------------------------------------- from: Popescu, George <popescu@igbb.msstate.edu> date: Mar 21, 2019, 7:37 PM subject: Special Issue of Complexity Journal - Dynamical Analysis of Biological Systems See: https://www.hindawi.com/journals/complexity/si/394076/cfp/. ---------------------------------------------------- from: American Institute of Biological Sciences <membership@aibs.org> date: Thu, Mar 21, 2019 at 10:20 AM subject: AIBS March 2019 Newsletter Please see: https://mailchi.mp/aibs/aibsmarch2019?e=00cceca591. ---------------------------------------------------- from: Mikael Pontarp <mikael.pontarp@biol.lu.se> date: Mar 22, 2019, 11:45 AM subject: PhD Position: Theoretical / Computational Ecology & Evolutionary Biology Doctoral student in Biology Lunds Universitet, Naturvetenskapliga fakulteten, Biologiska institutionen Links to application Swedish version: https://lu.varbi.com/se/what:job/jobID:258502/ English version: https://lu.varbi.com/en/what:job/jobID:258502/ Last application date: 11.Apr.2019 11:59 PM CET ---------------------------------------------------- from: Merks, R.M.H. <merksrmh@math.leidenuniv.nl> date: Mar 26, 2019, 4:31 AM subject: PhD Student: Mathematical Modeling of Cell-ecm Interactions During Angiogenesis PhD Student on Mathematical Modeling of Cell-ECM Interactions During Angiogenesis (1.0 fte); Leiden, The Netherlands See https://www.universiteitleiden.nl/en/vacancies/2019/q1/19-139-phd-student. ---------------------------------------------------- from: Jones, Nick <nick.jones@imperial.ac.uk> date: Mar 22, 2019, 6:38 AM subject: PDRA: Single Cell Stochastics & Inference, Ageing & Mitochondrial Transcriptomics PDRA in Single Cell Stochastics and Inference: Ageing and Mitochondrial Transcriptomics https://www.imperial.ac.uk/jobs/description/NAT00413/research-associate Closing date 15 April 2019 Applications are invited for a 2-year PostDoc joint between the labs of Nick Jones (Imperial Maths) and Patrick Chinnery (Cambridge Mitochondrial Biology Unit/Clinical Neuroscience) merging single cell stochastics, statistics and omics to study mitochondrial ageing. ---------------------------------------------------- from: Henry Warchall <hwarchal@nsf.gov> date: Mar 22, 2019, 7:55 PM subject: New NSF funding opportunity: Convergence Accelerator Pilot (NSF C-Accel) Please see https://www.nsf.gov/pubs/2019/nsf19050/nsf19050.jsp for details. ---------------------------------------------------- subject: SMBnet Reminders To subscribe to the SMB Digest please point your browser at https://list.auckland.ac.nz/sympa/info/math-smbnet and complete the subscription information.
