Pattern Formation in Morphogenesis: Problems and Mathematical Issues: 15 2013th Edition

From the reviews:

“The current book may be a good start to explore the subject. There are some 20 relatively short papers presenting different possible angles, approaches, and models for many different aspects of morphogenetic phenomena. The seeds for these papers were planted during a workshop on the subject at the IHES in Bures-sur-Yvette (France) in 2010. The idea of this workshop was precisely to create an environment in which biologists and mathematicians could communicate on this particular subject.” (A. Bultheel, The European Mathematical Society, December, 2012)

Pattern Formation in Morphogenesis is a rich source of interesting and challenging mathematical problems. The volume offers an interdisciplinary interaction space between biologists working in this field and mathematicians, who may propose solutions to the problems put forward by biologists. The main goal is to facilitate the process of cultivating a mutual recognition of the complementary skills between biologists and mathematicians, to the point where the resulting synergy generates new and novel discoveries in the field of Developmental Biology.

Lastly, the volume shows how a combination of new discoveries in developmental biology and associated mathematical modeling and computational techniques has stimulated or may stimulate relevant advances in the field.
