Featured Speaker: Denise Kirschner

Featured Presentation: Tools for predicting optimal regimens for treatment of Tuberculosis

Dr. Denise Kirschner is a mathematician and is a Professor of Microbiology & Immunology in the University of Michigan Medical School. She received her PhD in mathematics at Tulane University. Before arriving at the University of Michigan in 1997, she held positions at Los Alamos National Lab, Vanderbilt University Department of Mathematics, and Texas A&M University Department of Mathematics. Dr. Kirschner was the president of the Society for Mathematical Biology 2017-2019, and has been co-editor-in-chief of the Journal of Theoretical Biology since 2004. She has developed mathematical models of host-pathogen dynamics for persistent infectious diseases such as HIV, H. pylori, and tuberculosis, with a focus on immune-pathogen interactions in the lungs. Her approaches have included ODE, PDE, and agent-based multiscale modeling, and analysis methods such as global uncertainty and sensitivity analysis and optimal control to predict optimal drug regimens.

ACoP 9 (2018) MCS SIG Events

Meet the MCS SIG luncheon at ACoP 9: 12:45 pm – 1:45 pm Wednesday, October 10, 2018

Featured Speaker: Linda Petzold

Featured presentation: Discrete Stochastic Simulation in a Nutshell

Dr. Linda Petzold is the Mehrabian Distinguished Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering and the Department of Computer Science (Chair 2003-2007) and Director of the Computational Science and Engineering Graduate Emphasis at the University of California Santa Barbara. She spent 7 years working at Sandia National Laboratories and 6 years working at Livermore National Laboratory before returning to academia. She is a member of the US National Academy of Engineering and a Fellow of ACM, ASME, SIAM, and AAAS. She was named the UCSB Faculty Research Lecturer for 2011, was awarded the SIAM/ACM Prize for Computational Science and Engineering in 2013, received an Honorary Doctorate from Uppsala University in 2015, and was awarded the SIAM Prize for Distinguished Service in 2016. Her work in numerical algorithms for solving differential equation systems is widely known and used (especially DASSL and LSODA). Her current research focuses on modeling, simulation, and analysis of multiscale systems in biology and medicine.
