Chairman Dimitra Politaki – NEO Speaker: Professor Nelly Litvak, University of Twente Talk 1 Title: Story-telling Abstract: When writing a paper or a grant proposal you will often hear `high-level’ advice such as: `write easier’, `make it crystal clear’, `explain what is new’, `make it exciting’. I will explain two hands-on…

Walid Djema (BIOCORE) Title Understanding some biological phenomena from control and mathematical biology standpoints: analysis aspects of cell population dynamics and optimisation of stains selection in photobioreactors. Abstract In the first part of this talk, we introduce some interesting biological mechanisms, like hematopoiesis, which is the process of blood cell formation and continuous replenishment of all hematopoietic cells. Our main objective is to show how can mathematical modeling and analysis tools be used in order to better understand some biological phenomena, including cancer. For that purpose, we revisit some models of the cell cycle and cell proliferation in living organisms. Next, we investigate some basic properties of the resulting models, including stability and stabilization features. In the second phase, we introduce an optimal control problem associated to a model of microalgae growth. Then, we illustrate the efficiency of optimization tools in order to control the biological system and select some microalgae stains according to some useful biological/ecological criteria. Talk 2

Konstantinos Mavreas (FACTAS) Title The secrets of the Moon rocks, a basic idea of remanent magnetization and how to approximate it with rational analysis Abstract Ferromagnetic materials (like iron) have ''memory''! This is in the form of natural remanent magnetization. Paleomagnetic studies, take advantage of that ''memory'' and try to understand the evolution of the magnetic field in our planet and other planets / planetary objects. In our case Moon rocks have ''memory'' of an ancient global magnetic field that no longer exist. In the talk we will see how we can use rational approximation techniques to recover that ''memory'' and why this is important! Talk 2
