> The Second School of the European Society for Mathematical and Theoretical
> Biology will be held in Sig|enza, Spain, June 11-22, 2001. The First
> (Summer) School on Spatial Structures in Biology and Ecology: Models and
> Methods took place in Martina-Franca, Italy, September 4-15, 2000
> http://www.mat.unimi.it/~miriam/ESMTB/MARTINA-SS/summer_school.html
> The Sig|enza school is also a follow-up of the School "Mathematics in Cell
> Physiology and Proliferation" which was held in Termoli, Italy, 6-19 June
> 1999. The school will feature classical as well as novel aspects of cells,
> the building-up of material inside a single cell, the migration and
> aggregation of cells, the cell-cycle mechanism, cell proliferation of
normal
> and abnormal cells, new techniques of exploration of the genome, and
> evolutionary aspects of cells.
> The school will take place in the Seminary of Sig|enza which will also
> accommodate the participants and the instructors. The entire Seminary will
> be at the disposition of the school. The Seminary is a recent
construction,
> with a number of class rooms of various sizes, surrounded by a large
garden.
> It is a few kilometers away from the medieval town of Sig|enza, whose
> Parador, an old castle superbly renovated, and the Cathedral, will give
the
> participants a pretext for pleasant evening excursions. Sig|enza is about
> 100 kilometers from Madrid, which can be reached by the regional train.
> The facilities of the school will make it possible to organize the
> activities in such a way as to allow participants to select among some of
> the courses offered. The courses will be divided into two groups: the
> morning courses (9:00-12:30) are the primary courses, devoted to the
keynote
> subjects. They are intended for all participants. The afternoon courses
> (16:00-19:00) are the complementary courses. Some of these courses will be
> given in parallel sessions; some of the complementary courses will be
> repeated in several sessions, allowing for smaller groups and a better
> interaction of participants and teachers. Communications by participants
> will be organized.
>
> Each course is divided into units of 40mn. Two formats for the
> communications: 10mn (appropriate for a work in progress, such as first
year
> of a PhD, good to break the ice) and 20mn (for already well advanced or
even
> completed work). The choice is entirely yours. There will be ten days of
> classes, Monday through Friday, during two weeks.
