Trends in Biomathematics: Modeling Health Across Ecology, Social Interactions, and Cells

Rubem P. Mondaini is President of the BIOMAT Consortium/International Institute for Interdisciplinary Mathematical and Biological Sciences and a Full Professor of Mathematical Biology and Biological Physics at the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. He holds a PhD in Theoretical Physics from the Brazilian Centre for Physical Research, Brazil. His research activities abroad include a period as a Visiting Scientist at the International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP), Trieste, Italy (1978) and as a Senior Postdoc at the Department of Mathematics of King's College, University of London, UK (1986). He was also a Visiting Professor at the Centre of Physics of Condensed Matter, Lisbon, Portugal (1986) and at the Department of Chemical Engineering of Princeton University (2008). He has been the Chairman of the Annual BIOMAT Conferences since their inception during the BIOMAT 2001 Symposium in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
