THE FIELDS INSTITUTE FOR RESEARCH IN MATHEMATICAL SCIENCES

Wednesday March 18 - Thursday March 19, 2015
Workshop on Mathematical Mobilization of Vaccine
Discovery and Development

Room 230
Fields Institute 222 College St. Toronto

Organizing Committee:
Jane Heffernan (York University), Ayman Chit (North America at Sanofi Pasteur)
OBJECTIVES

The principal objectives of the workshop are to:
1. Evaluate the successes of mathematical and economical model that have been successfully integrated into the drug and vaccine discovery and development process.
2. Identify components of the pharmaceutical development pathway that will (better) benefit from mathematical modelling studies
3. Develop guidelines for the assessment of mathematical modelling results for the pharmaceutical approval process
