| The Focus Program on Mathematical Modeling of Neurological Disease from Cellular Perspectives, hosted by the Fields Institute, is perhaps the first event of its kind devoted exclusively to bringing together mathematicians, experimentalists, and clinicians to address detailed issues related to neurological disease modeling. The Program will consist of five workshops, each devoted to a separate neurological disease, and is taking place from May 22-June 5, 2012 at the Wallberg Building on the University of Toronto St. George campus.
