BIO-MATH course:

tuesday and thursday, 17:00-19:00, room 236

Dear students, some interesting web-pages:
* The cell and the cell's cycle: Cytoplasm, Cell's Nulceus, Cell's Cycle
* Differential Equations and Stability: see Chap 10 of Gintis'book

Minicourses:

* Structured Population Dynamics:


Benoit Perthame, INRIA-ENS, France.
Tuesday and Thursday (Jan. 15 and 17) from 17:00 to 18:00

Abstract: This minicourse will be divided into three lectures aimed atgraduate student level (Master/Phd).
The first one will be "From differential systems to structured populations".
The second one will be "Population balance laws".
The third one will be "The generalized entropy method"
