What the workshop is about:
The objectives of the workshop are four-fold: to introduce mathematicians
and modelers to problems arising in medical science; to effectively
aid practioners and researcher in medicine exploit current mathematical
tools; to train a new generation of mathematicians in problem-solving,
and to provide a natural opportunity for long-term research collaborations
to develop in an interdisciplinary setting.
The format of the workshop will be along the lines of the well-established
Study Groups at Oxford. On the first morning of the workshop, researchers
in medicine will present technical problems of interest to them.
We envision a total of 5 distinct problems. The academics will then
divide into teams of 6-8 people, to work on these problems for the
next three and a half days. On the final day of the workshop, progress
on these problems will be reported, and a report on these activities
will be prepared subsequently.
MITACS
MITACS leads Canada's effort in the generation, application and
commercialization of new mathematical tools and methodologies within
a world-class research program. The network initiates and fosters
linkages with industrial, governmental, and not-for-profit organizations
that require mathematical technologies to deal with problems of
strategic importance to Canada.
MITACS helps link academia, industry and the public sector, with
a view to developing cutting edge mathematical tools vital to a
knowledge-based economy. It sponsors research partnerships, industrial
interchanges, workshops, and training programs.
