The concept</span><span class=""> </span><span class="">was initiated in 1996 by Yvon Maday and Frédéric Coquel and takes place every year at CIRM in Luminy (Marseille,</span><span class=""> </span><span class="">France) during 6 weeks from mid-july. The goal of this event is to bring together scientists from both the academic and</span><span class=""> </span><span class="">industrial communities to work and discuss on focused topics. </span><span class="">During the first week, a classical school is proposed. It consists of several lectures given by leading scientists and</span><span class=""> </span><span class="">related to the topics of the research projects. The remaining 5 weeks are dedicated to working on the research projects,</span><span class=""> </span><span class="">possibly after a morning seminar.</span><span class=""> </span><span class=""><br class=""></span><span class=""><br class=""></span><span class="">CEMRACS'18 will be the twenty-third of the series. The aim of this CEMRACS is to focus on the mathematical models</span><span class=""> </span><span class="">applied to natural sciences. For several years, application of mathematics to biology or medicine has become a major</span><span class=""> </span><span class="">field of interest. Important progresses have been made in multiscale and multiphysics modeling, for both theoretical and</span><span class=""> </span><span class="">numerical aspects. These simulations can be viewed as an alternative to in vivo or in vitro experiments and may be</span><span class=""> </span><span class="">referred to as in silico experiments. A major advantage of these in silico experiments is that they do not require invasive</span><span class=""> </span><span class="">procedures and can be easily used to elaborate/test different scenarii. The contribution of mathematical and numerical</span><span class=""> </span><span class="">models to research and development in the biomedical field can be at several levels. In a first step, this may provide</span><span class=""> </span><span class="">valuable tools to understand/explain the underlying biomedical phenomena or the observations. In a second step, it can</span><span class=""> </span><span class="">also help to make a prediction (for tumor growth, drug efficiency,...). Finally, it can be integrated as a part of the decision</span><span class=""> </span><span class="">process as an optimization tool.</span><span class=""> </span><span class=""><br class=""></span><span class=""><br class=""></span><span class="">CEMRACS'18 will consist of two joint events:</span></div><div class=""><span class="">- a one week</span><span class=""> </span><span class="">summer school</span><span class=""> </span><span class="">(July 16 - July 21)</span></div><div class=""><span class="">- an intensive 5-week long</span><span class=""> </span><span class="">research session</span><span class=""> </span><span class="">(July 23 - August 24)</span></div><div class=""><span class=""><br class="">The list of research programmes can be found here: <a href="http://smai.emath.fr/cemracs/cemracs18/projects.php" class="">http://smai.emath.fr/cemracs/cemracs18/projects.php</a></span></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">
