If you have a question about this talk, please contact Jason Kwong.

I will introduce several deterministic and stochastic dynamical systems which have been used for mathematical modelling in biology, describing processes at different spatial and temporal scales. Using simple illustrative examples, I will discuss connections between (detailed) molecular dynamics simulations, (less detailed) Brownian dynamics approaches and (even coarser) models written as partial differential equations. I will use this discussion to highlight some open mathematical problems in the field of mathematical biology.
