| Title | Dynamics of Biochemical Reaction Networks - Part II |
| Organizer | Maya Mincheva |
| Department of Mathematical Sciences, Northern Illinois University | |
| Abstract | Interactions of complex networks of genes, proteins and enzymes play a central role in modern cellular biology. This minisyposium focuses on mathematical and computational models for biochemical reaction networks, usually modeled as dynamical systems. Speakers will describe current efforts to relate the dynamic behavior of the models to the topology and other important properties of biochemical networks, to identify functional modules of the biochemical networks and to determine global dynamic behavior of species concentrations, using diverse techniques from bifurcation theory, control theory and algebraic geometry. Some of the speakers will describe their collaborative work with experimentalists on the yeast circadian clock, cell polarity and the unfolded protein response. |
