| Title: | Multiscale models of chemotaxis |
| Seminar: | Computational and Applied Mathematics Colloquium |
| Speaker: | Chuan Xue, Ohio State University Mathematics |
| Abstract: |
| Chemotaxis is the directed movement of cells in response to
extracellular chemical signals. Chemotaxis of cell populations have
been modelled using both continuum models which involves systems of
PDEs, and cell-based models that describe movement of each cell as a
stochastic process with internal dynamics. In this talk, I will review
current theory of both approaches and discuss recent developments on
derivation of continuum models from cell-based models in the context
of bacterial chemotaxis. |
