Nonlinear Analysis for Biology and Geophysical flows

Team presentation

Research themes

  • Modelling by PDEs/ODEs and mathematical analysis of growth processes in biology and in medicine: cell division, chemotaxis and aggregation of cells, molecular pharmacology (pharmacokinetics-pharmacodynamics), therapeutic optimisation in oncology, protein aggregation and fragmentation (prion, Alzheimer)
  • Individual-based models (IBMs) of healthy and tumour tissue growth : liver regeneration, growth of solid tumours
  • Free surface geophysical flows, stratified flows and upwellings, hydro-biological coupling
