Addressing declining pollinator populations through new mathematics
30 Mar 2026 - 03 Apr 2026 • Pasadena, United States
Organizer:
American Institute of Mathematics, Pasadena, California
Abstract:
This workshop, sponsored by AIM and the NSF, will focus on advancing mathematical modeling frameworks and theory to address the urgent challenges posed by declining pollinator populations. Insect pollination is vital to terrestrial ecosystems and agriculture, with honeybee pollination in the United States alone valued at over $12 billion annually. Yet, substantial evidence shows that pollinator populations are in sharp decline, with honeybee colony losses reaching unprecedented levels — threatening agricultural sustainability and food security. These declines result from complex interactions among environmental factors (e.g., shifting climate patterns) and biological processes (e.g., exposure to agrochemicals such as insecticides and fungicides, parasitic infections, diseases, and habitat degradation).

Modeling and Theory in Population Biology
01 Jun 2026 - 05 Jun 2026 • Providence, United States
Organizer:
Institute for Computational and Experimental Research in Mathematics
Abstract:
Mathematical population biologists study of a wide array of biological phenomena—such as the spread of alleles in a populations, the coexistence of competing species within ecosystems, the branching of phylogenetic trees, the transmission dynamics of infectious diseases, and the demographic history of populations—that are typically studied across distinct biological subfields, including demography, ecology, epidemiology, and population genetics. Although these phenomena are often represented in separate scientific communities, they are united by a core set of mathematical and computational modeling philosophies and approaches. Recent advances in computation and data-gathering technologies have greatly increased our power to test hypotheses about ecological and evolutionary processes and to make detailed inferences about the structure of populations. These advances have facilitated the development of new models for individuals and populations in space and over time, including models that relax some of the core assumptions underlying much of previous theory.

The goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers in population biology who draw on diverse areas, including stochastic processes, mathematical statistics, dynamical systems, combinatorics and, increasingly, computational modeling and simulation, to share the latest mathematical advances and tools across subfields. This exchange of approaches will reveal synergies and spark new research directions.

Integrative Structural Biology: Bridging Fields, Techniques, and Scales
28 Sep 2026 - 01 Oct 2026 • Breckenridge, Colorado, United States
Organizer:
Keystone Symposia
Abstract:
Biological discovery is undergoing a transformation driven by the convergence of advanced imaging technologies, data science, and computational modeling. This Keystone Symposium will address the critical need to integrate heterogeneous imaging modalities, aided by computational and Deep Learning-driven approaches, to derive mechanistic and predictive insights from complex biological data. The meeting aims to foster dialogue among imaging scientists, computational biologists, data scientists, and systems biologists to define emerging frontiers in data integration, standardization, accessibility, and visualization. Previous conferences have often centered on individual structural biology techniques but have rarely emphasized interdisciplinary approaches. In contrast, this meeting contains a carefully curated program that prioritizes research presentations explicitly focused on integrative approaches, ensuring that the symposium moves beyond acknowledgement to actionable convergence.

Hormonal Influences on Immunity and Cancer Across the Lifespan
04 Oct 2026 - 08 Oct 2026 • Breckenridge, Colorado, United States
Organizer:
Keystone Symposia
Abstract:
This meeting will present work that encompasses the influence of hormones on driving cancer across the lifespan, through influences on aging, immunity, and other factors. Many current studies in aging and cancer do not adequately consider the impact of hormones, hormone receptors, and changing hormone levels as drivers of these processes. This meeting will assemble researchers across the fields of endocrinology, aging, and oncology to discuss the interplay of these multiple factors and how they should be considered when diagnosing and treating cancers. The meeting will span basic, translational, and clinical research to drive bench to bedside and bedside and back insights that will advance our understanding of cancer etiology, prevention, and treatment approaches. The meeting will bridge interdisciplinary groups of scientists, population scientists, and clinicians, allowing a unique blend of discovery in the hormones over the lifespan, aging, immunity, and cancer.
Topics:
Cancer, Hormones, Endocrinology, Oncology, Aging, Immunology, Bench to Bedside, Clinical Research, Translational Research

Sensory Systems: Interoception and Exteroception
18 Jan 2027 - 21 Jan 2027 • Keystone, Colorado, United States
Organizer:
Keystone Symposia
Abstract:
Sensory Systems: Interoception and Exteroception brings together leaders across neuroscience, physiology, and systems biology to explore how organisms sense, integrate, and respond to both the external world and internal bodily states. From exteroceptive senses such as touch, taste, olfaction, vision, and hearing to rapidly advancing insights into interoception, this meeting highlights how sensory systems shape perception, behavior, homeostasis, and disease. The program features an emphasis on interoception – how signals from organs such as the gut, heart, and lungs are detected, encoded, and interpreted by the nervous system – revealing new frameworks for understanding behavioral and physiological responses. Sessions also explore somatosensation, chemosensation, mechanosensation, and multisensory integration, linking foundational mechanisms to organism-level outcomes. This meeting will be held jointly with Neurobiology of Appetite Control.

Neural Plasticity and Recovery after Traumatic CNS Injury & Stroke
19 Jan 2027 - 22 Jan 2027 • Breckenridge, Colorado, United States
Organizer:
Keystone Symposia
Abstract:
Stroke and traumatic injury are common neurologic disorders and the leading causes for adult-onset disability. Development of therapeutics to improve recovery has been hindered due to a limited understanding of how circuits within the central nervous system (CNS) are affected by injury. Technological advances have enabled interrogation of the CNS with unprecedented resolution. These are being applied to stroke and trauma survivors and to animal models, allowing for a critical re-appraisal of proposed mechanisms of recovery. This knowledge is crucially important as neuromodulation therapies are available for clinical trials, but when and how to apply these to patients are not well understood. This conference will bring together scientists working across species, using diverse approaches, to understand the mechanisms underlying dysfunction and recovery after stroke or injury to the brain or spinal cord. This conference will be unique in its focus on basic and translational science of CNS recovery that brings together researchers working across many disease models and injury types. This meeting will be held jointly with Neurodevelopmental Disorders: Mechanisms and Therapeutics.
Topics:
Neurobiology, Neuroscience, Brain Injuries, Spinal Cord Injuries, Regeneration and Repair in the Nervous System, Stroke, Translational Research, Neuro Modulation, Neuro Repair, Neuro Tech, Neuroplasticity, TBI Research
