Global KMS 강연 (금 오후 1:20, 상산관)에 앞서 다음과 같이 특별강연이 있음을 안내 드립니다. 연사 : Prof. Mary F. Wheeler 소속 : U of Texas - Austin 일시 : 2006.10.26(목) 오후 5시 제목 : Multiscale Angiogenesis Modeling 장소 : 과학관 225호 수학과 세미나실 주최 : 연세 BK21 수리과학사업단 Abstract : In this presentation we describe a deterministic two-scale tissue-cellular approach for modeling growth factor-induced angiogenesis. The bioreaction-diffusion of chemotactic growth factors (CGF) is modeled at a tissue scale, whereas cell proliferation, capillary extension, branching and anastomosis are modeled at a cellular scale. The capillary indicator function is used to bridge these two scales. The system of resulting equations consists pf parabolic partial differential equations coupled nonlinearly with a varying number of ordinary differential and algebraic equations. Both computational and theoretical results will be presented. This work is a joint collaboration with Shuyu Sun of The University of Texas at Austin and Mandri Obeyesekere and Charles W. Patrick, Jr. of M.D. Anderson Cancer Center. 박은재 드림
