The aim of the Course is to bring together people with different scientific backgrounds to learn and discuss an advanced subject in Mathematical Physics. The Course consists of 12 lectures of approximately 1 hour each; the style of the meetings is very informal.

Topics

• Biological mechanisms underlying cell motions
• Cell motion in fiber networks: a kinetic model
• Cell-matrix interactions in multiphase models
• Cell migration by cellular Potts models
• Modelling cell motion in microchannels
• Modelling intravasation processes
