15E16 Modeling, Analysis and Control in Biomedicine
OverviewPapers are sought that address modeling, control, and analysis approaches to problems in biomedical engineering and the life sciences. Experimental, theoretical, and computational contributions are encouraged. Scales of interest range from the intracellular to the organism-level, depending on the manner in which the systems problem is posed. Suitable topics include, but are not limited to, (non)linear modeling of dynamical biosystems including signal transduction pathways, control-relevant modeling, and open- and closed-loop analysis of biomedical control systems.
