Working in collaborative teams of six, each with a senior research mentor, researchers developed new mathematical models to address questions in a range of application areas. Topics include retinal degeneration, biopolymer dynamics, the topological structure of DNA, ensemble analysis, multidrug-resistant organisms, tumor growth modeling, and geospatial modeling of malaria. The work is the result of newly formed collaborative groups begun during the Collaborative Workshop for Woman in Mathematical Biology hosted by the Institute of Pure and Applied Mathematics at UCLA in June 2019. Previous workshops in this series have occurred at IMA, NIMBioS, and MBI. 410 0$aAssociation for Women in Mathematics Series,$x2364-5733 ;$v22 606 $aBiological systems$xMathematical models 606 $aMathematical models 606 $aBiomathematics 615 0$aBiological systems$xMathematical models. 615 0$aMathematical models. 615 0$aBiomathematics. 676 $a570.151 702 $aSegal$b Rebecca 702 $aShtylla$b Blerta 702 $aSindi$b Suzanne 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996466414603316 996 $aUsing mathematics to understand biological complexity$92831294 997 $aUNISA
