Vascular and Metabolic Modeling of the Brain at Large Scale
10 Oct 2023 - 20 Oct 2023 • Université de Montréal, Canada
Organizer:
Centre de recherches mathématiques (CRM)
Abstract:
While brain function originates in neuron, its energy is supported by the vascular system. With the recent development of anatomically detailed synthetic network models of the entire cerebral circulation, it is now possible to perform detailed simulations of physiology in realistic brains of small animals and humans on the computer. Modeling microcirculatory blood flow as a biphasic suspension of red-blood-cell and plasma, blood pressure, flow and hematocrit can be simulated in whole brains on the computer. Combining Poiseuille’s hemodynamic simulations with advection/diffusion equations describing oxygen diffusion, the human brain metabolism can now be modeled in-silico, by integrating tissue oxygen consumption and differential equations describing compartments associated with neural and glial brain cells. In parallel, energy metabolism regulation in the brain and its modeling has greatly progressed over the past few decades. This workshop will thus be focused on digital human brains, and their use to predict critical metabolic functions namely blood flow, oxygen extraction and cellular metabolism across all length scales down to the level of individual capillaries and cells. Courses and conferences will be combined with research presentations and practical workshops.

Homological Perspective on Splines and Finite Elements
19 May 2024 - 24 May 2024 • UBC Okanagan campus in Kelowna, B.C., Canada
Organizer:
Banff International Research Station for Mathematical Innovation and Discovery (BIRS)
Abstract:
Amazingly, splines are not just of practical interest in applications, but also are interesting from a purely theoretical mathematical perspective. This workshop brings together researchers from different mathematical communities: on the applied side, those working in numerical analysis and approximation theory, and on the theoretical side, those working in GKM theory, equivariant cohomology and homological algebra. The aim is to bring theory and practice together, and to build collaborations between researchers from different areas. The advancement of knowledge often arises from integration of seemingly different fields.
