Brainstorm

Mathematical modelling of physical phenomena, such as the dynamics of rigid body, the deformation of an elastic material or the propagation of electromagnetic waves in the atmosphere, is based, to the best of our present scientific knowledge, on sound physical laws. In biology and life sciences in general this interplay between the observed phenomenon and its mathematical description is still in the early stages of development and apart from the Hardy-Weinberg law associated with the Mendelian theory of genetics there are few sound postulates to guide us.

This a classical in mathematical biology.

About Me

Jorge Pires: Venho escrevendo e ensinando modelagem de sistemas biológicos para leigos desde o doutorado, onde lancei alguns cursos locais, na Universidade de L’Aquila, onde fiz meu mestrado e doutorado. Desde então, tenho alimentado um canal do YouTube, blogs e outras formas de disseminar conhecimento e discussões, com um forte enfoque online. Sou literalmente apaixonado por biologia, matemática, programação, e qualquer coisa que faça meu cérebro funcionar! Possuo um doutorado pela Universidade de L’Aquila/Itália, reconhecido no Brasil pela Universidade de São Paulo (USP) em bioinformática. Fiz 2 pós-doutorados, um pela Universidade Federal da Bahia (UFBA) e outro pela Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (Fiocruz). Também fiz um mestrado duplo pela Universidade de L’Aquila e Técnica de Gdansk/Polônia; minha graduação é pela Universidade Federal de Ouro Preto em Engenharia de Produção.
