The development of mathematical methods applied to health enables the modeling of complex biological and medical phenomena. These tools are used to analyze, simulate, and predict the evolution of living systems and play a crucial role in clinical research and public health decision-making. Modeling biological systems, epidemic dynamics, healthcare optimization, and medical data analysis require rigorous and interdisciplinary approaches.

This research, at the crossroads of mathematics, biology, medicine, and computer science, employs a variety of tools including analysis, probability, statistics, optimization, and dynamical systems. It allows for the construction of robust theoretical models as well as concrete applications for diagnosis, prevention, and medical decision support.

This thematic semester aims to provide an overview of the mathematical tools currently employed in health sciences. It seeks to strike a balance between theoretical development and practical applications, targeting a diverse audience - researchers, students, healthcare professionals, and industry stakeholders - who wish to deepen their understanding or initiate collaborations at the interface between mathematics and health. The program is structured around two main themes: “Mathematics & Health” and “Statistics & Health.”
