On June 1, our annual project course – the Bachelor’s course for the ~30 students in Engineering Biology, TBMT33 – is having its final presentation day. This is a good chance to get a quick overview of existing projects within ISBgroup, and to see some of the different ways that mathematical modelling can be used as an integrated tool in experimental and clinical research. The schedule of the day is as follows.
All presentations in Linden, Campus US
