Their\u0026nbsp;intention for this session is not only to highlight the diverse areas of mathematics related to models involving biomolecular and cellular interactions, but also the diversity of the researchers involved in these areas.\u0026nbsp;Please see the information below for more details.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Ch3\u003EJMM Special Session\u003C\/h3\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ETitle:\u003C\/strong\u003E\u0026nbsp;Mathematical Models for Biomolecular and Cellular Interactions\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EDate \u0026amp; Time:\u003C\/strong\u003E\u0026nbsp;January 7, 2022 (8am - 11:50am PST and 1pm - 5:50pm PST)\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EAbstract:\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/strong\u003EUnderstanding biomolecular and cellular interactions is at the heart of vital questions in biology because such interactions have far-reaching effects on larger, fundamental processes. Mathematical models for these phenomena continue to provide new insights into open biological questions and serve as catalysts for advancing both biology and mathematics. In recent years, techniques from algebra, topology, and combinatorics have complemented more traditional approaches involving ordinary and partial differential equations in the development of tools describing biomolecular and cellular structures and dynamics. This session will focus on current advancements and open problems involving such methods. To highlight the breadth of these mathematical approaches, topics will include models for neuroscience, cancer evolution, genome sequence analysis, regulatory networks, and RNA\/DNA structures. Moreover, we have invited junior and senior speakers from under-represented minorities in order to promote inclusivity and diversity within the associated research communities.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ECurrent List of Speakers:\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Col\u003E\r\n\t\u003Cli\u003EMario Banuelos (CSU Fresno)\u003C\/li\u003E\r\n\t\u003Cli\u003EVeronica Ciocanel (Duke)\u003C\/li\u003E\r\n\t\u003Cli\u003EKeisha Cook (Clemson)\u003C\/li\u003E\r\n\t\u003Cli\u003EAdriana Dawes (OSU)\u003C\/li\u003E\r\n\t\u003Cli\u003EStephanie Dodson (UC Davis)\u003C\/li\u003E\r\n\t\u003Cli\u003EJoel Dokmegang (Northwestern)\u003C\/li\u003E\r\n\t\u003Cli\u003ELina Fajardo-Gomez (U South Florida)\u003C\/li\u003E\r\n\t\u003Cli\u003EAlvaro Fletcher (UC Irvine)\u003C\/li\u003E\r\n\t\u003Cli\u003EAbdulmelik Mohammed (U South Florida)\u003C\/li\u003E\r\n\t\u003Cli\u003EDavid Murrugarra (U Kentucky)\u003C\/li\u003E\r\n\t\u003Cli\u003EAsja Radja (Harvard)\u003C\/li\u003E\r\n\t\u003Cli\u003EAlexander Ruys de Perez (Georgia Tech)\u003C\/li\u003E\r\n\t\u003Cli\u003ESuzanne Sindi (UC Merced)\u003C\/li\u003E\r\n\t\u003Cli\u003ELuis Sordo Vieira (U Florida)\u003C\/li\u003E\r\n\t\u003Cli\u003EImelda Trejo (Los Alamos National Lab)\u003C\/li\u003E\r\n\t\u003Cli\u003EBin Xu (Clarkson)\u003C\/li\u003E\r\n\t\u003Cli\u003ENora Youngs (Colby)\u003C\/li\u003E\r\n\u003C\/ol\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":"","field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Daniel Cruz and Margherita Maria Ferrari are hosting a Special Session titled  \u0022Mathematical Models for Biomolecular and Cellular Interactions\u0022 at the Joint Mathematical Meeting 2022 in Seattle, WA,  January 5-8, 2022."}],"uid":"34518","created_gmt":"2021-11-12 15:49:59","changed_gmt":"2021-12-03 15:44:15","author":"sbarone7","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","dateline":{"date":"2021-11-22T00:00:00-05:00","iso_date":"2021-11-22T00:00:00-05:00","tz":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"hg_media":{"647697":{"id":"647697","type":"image","title":"Daniel Cruz and Margherita Maria Ferrari","body":null,"created":"1621872518","gmt_created":"2021-05-24 16:08:38","changed":"1621872518","gmt_changed":"2021-05-24 16:08:38","alt":"","file":{"fid":"245874","name":"DanielCruz and Margherita F.jpg","image_path":"\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/DanielCruz%20and%20Margherita%20F.jpg","image_full_path":"http:\/\/www.tlwarc.hg.gatech.edu\/\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/DanielCruz%20and%20Margherita%20F.jpg","mime":"image\/jpeg","size":32612,"path_740":"http:\/\/www.tlwarc.hg.gatech.edu\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/740xx_scale\/public\/images\/DanielCruz%20and%20Margherita%20F.jpg?itok=TN1SfMSi"}}},"media_ids":["647697"],"related_links":[{"url":"https:\/\/www.jointmathematicsmeetings.org\/meetings\/national\/jmm2022\/2268_program_ss75.html","title":"JMM 2022"}],"groups":[{"id":"1279","name":"School of Mathematics"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"173647","name":"_for_math_site_"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[],"invited_audience":[],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022mailto:comm@math.gatech.edu\u0022\u003ESal Barone\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n","format":"limited_html"}],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
