Eder Zavala, Quantitative analysis of high-resolution daily profiles of HPA axis hormones
ZOOM ID: 997 8258 4700 (Biomedical Mathematics Online Colloquium) (pw: 1234)Abstract: The Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal (HPA) axis is the key regulatory pathway responsible for maintaining homeostasis under conditions of real or perceived stress. Endocrine responses to stressors are mediated by adrenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH) and corticosteroid (CORT) hormones. In healthy, non-stressed conditions, ACTH and CORT exhibit highly correlated ultradian pulsatility with an amplitude modulated by circadian processes. Disruption …
Matthew Simpson, Efficient prediction, estimation and identifiability analysis with mechanistic mathematical models
ZOOM ID: 997 8258 4700 (Biomedical Mathematics Online Colloquium) (pw: 1234)Abstract: Interpreting data using mechanistic mathematical models provides a foundation for discovery and decision-making in all areas of science and engineering. Key steps in using mechanistic mathematical models to interpret data include: (i) identifiability analysis; (ii) parameter estimation; and (iii) model prediction. Here we present a systematic, computationally efficient likelihood-based workflow that addresses all three …

Alfio Quarteroni, Physics-based and data-driven numerical models for computational medicine
ZOOM ID: 997 8258 4700 (Biomedical Mathematics Online Colloquium) (pw: 1234)Abstract: I will report on some recent results on modelling the heart, the external circulation, and their application to problems of clinical relevance. I will show that a proper integration between PDE-based and machine-learning algorithms can improve the computational efficiency and enhance the generality of our iHEART simulator.
