NSF's 10 Big Ideas
Mathematical biology is a growing branch of applied mathematics as the interest of modeling complex biological
systems increases. Optimal control theory is a branch of mathematics developed to
find optimal ways to control a dynamic system. Generally, the optimal control problem
consists of an objective functional, a dynamic system and the control(s). The controls
enter the dynamics in a variety of ways as coefficients, boundary terms or sources.
My research focuses on understanding the spatial and temporal patterns that arise in dynamic biological systems and when possible, finding the best way to control the system.
Science Feb. 6th, 2004 --- Devoted to Mathematics in Biology 
In a special collection of articles published beginning 6 February 2004, Science Magazine and its online companion sites teamed up to explore one of the hottest interdisciplinary collaborations in science today: the interface between mathematics and biology. In Science, News, Viewpoint, and Review articles covered how mathematics and computation are informing biology on a wide variety of fronts, the need for incorporating quantitative approaches into bioscience curricula, and some of the uses -- and abuses -- of mathematical models for biological systems.
Systems Biology: A New Biology for the 21st Century, 2009. National Research Council.
recommends that a "New Biology" approach--one that depends on greater integration
within biology, and closer collaboration with physical, computational, and earth scientists,
mathematicians and engineers--be used to find solutions to four key societal needs:
sustainable food production, ecosystem restoration, optimized biofuel production,
and improvement in human health. The approach calls for a coordinated effort to leverage
resources across the federal, private, and academic sectors to help meet challenges
and improve the return on life science research in general.
