Journées
Hyperstructures, Topological Data Analysis and
Multicellularity
POSTPONED, new dates are May 6-7
2020 (provided it will be possible)
This
two days conference is the starting event of a transdisciplinary
project aiming to bring together experts in mathematical biology, data
analysis and topology to study multicellular organisms. Those are,
among living systems, those whose complexity, due to a multiplicity of
intricate levels of description from an integrated physiology point of
view, makes their study seldom satisfactory as soon as one aims to fix
issues evidenced as malfunctions, the major of them in a medical
perspective being cancer. The idea behind the whole project
is to shed light on this question both from a theoretical
viewpoint by a description of multicellular organisms in terms of
higher structures, which integratefunction (semantics) and matter
(syntax) from lower to upper levels, and from an applied one by
investigating existing data bases using methods of topological data
analysis (TDA). The conference itself will be dedicated to
presenting to a broad audience and participants the state of
the
art of ideas related to multicellular organisms, applications
of
topological data analysis, hypestructures, higher structures from
topology and categorical methods.
