This Centre was launched in response
to a perceived urgent need as well as a unique opportunity
to create a centre for mathematical medicine based at
the Fields Institute which would formally consolidate
research initiatives that are already underway. The Centre
is intended to be a nidus for researchers from medicine
and mathematics and to provide critical mass for new interdisciplinary
research ventures and initiatives. This would establish
the Centre for Mathematical Medicine (CMM) as a unique
organization not only in Toronto and Ontario, but also
in Canada. Funding will be sought from peer reviewed grants
and also by direct fund raising activities for CMM.
Our
Goals:
Establish
a Research Centre that will focus on research utilizing
mathematics to address therapeutic challenges in
medicine. Use mathematical modeling to direct intelligent
therapeutic strategies and trials in Medicine.
Bring
together researchers from mathematics and medicine
to discuss problems of current interest in the medical
sciences.
Establish
a teaching program and seminar series - coordinate
undergraduate and graduate teaching in Mathematical
Medicine.
