Abstract:

In this new era of advanced technologies, improved understanding of biological processes can be more effectively gained by the use of systems biology approach that involves mathematical modeling, statistics and computational sciences. Such work requires multidisciplinary collaboration between biomedical researchers and quantitative scientists. Building and managing a multidisciplinary team presents a number of unique challenges related to overcoming barriers of integrating disparate knowledge, technologies and approaches. Our recent research focuses on development of mathematical models and computer simulations for influenza infection using systems biology approach. In this talk, I will share our experience on how to overcome collaboration and communication barriers among the diverse disciplines of quantitative scientists and biomedical experimentalists to achieve our goals.
