Economic Principles in Cell Biology          

Our second second summer school on “Economic principles in cell biology” will take place in July 2023 at the Learning Planet Institute Paris and online (hybrid). Like our previous summer school in 2022, it is related to the open textbook “Economic principles in cell biology” on cellular physiology and resource allocation, developed by an international group of researchers as a resource for learning and teaching.

The summer school targets undergraduate and graduate students as well as postdoctoral researchers with a natural sciences background (including biological sciences, physics, engineering, or mathematics). It focuses on mathematical modeling of cellular systems (without wet experiments) and will show how mathematical models and “resource allocation thinking” can help you understand cell physiology. We hope to get feedback from students for improving the book, and to recruit students or colleagues for participating in our project.

The 2023 edition of our summer school will feature some topics from last year, but also new topics. Participants of our last summer school are encouraged to join us again!

Participation is free (on-site and online).
