Welcome to MaLiS Club!

The "MaLiS" Club meets regularly to discuss ongoing projects around mathematical questions in medicine and life sciences, either at the Venusberg Campus or in Endenich/Poppelsdorf. Interested scientists from the University of Bonn and cooperating local institutions are welcome to participate. The “MaLiS” Club is financially supported by TRA Life and Health and TRA Modelling.

Our next events:

23.05.2025
Time: 2:30 pm.
Location: "Lipschitz-Saal" (Endenicher Allee 60)

Speakers:
- Amandine Véber (Department of Applied Mathematics (MAP5), Université Paris
Cité): Stochastic models for the growth of filamentous fungi
- Carolin Schneider (Clinic for Gastroenterology, Metabolic Disorders, and Internal Intensive Medicine, University Hospital RWTH Aachen): Using big data for prevention of metabolic (liver) disease

Please contact Christina Fricke for further information.

How can I participate?

Our “MaLiS Club” is aimed at researchers at all career levels at the University of Bonn and local cooperation partners. If you would like to join us, attend the seminars and exchange ideas with other researchers over coffee and cake afterwards. Sign up for our mailing list to be regularly informed about our events (Uni-ID required).

Registration without Uni-ID

Please send us an e-mail if you work at a non-university institution and would like to join the mailing list.

BMBF-Funding for Modelling Project in Tumor Organoids

Congratulations to Elena Reckzeh and Jan Hasenauer for securing BMBF funding for the innovative project ISPOT-K: The ISPOT-K-team will create organoids from patient-derived colorectal tumors and treat them with several cancer drugs. In a next step, the obained data will be correlated with further molecular and physiolocial patient data to create a digital twin to simulate reactions for possible treatment options. This is done in collaboration with the company MSPlabs/ESQlabs. This may eventually facilitate truly personalized treatment options for cancer patients!

Bonn Conference on Mathematical Life Sciences - a huge success!

More than 200 scientists discussed at the four-day symposium of TRAs "Modelling" and "Life and Health" as well as Clusters of Excellence HCM and ImmunoSensation² the current state of the research activities and potential future development in the field of mathematical modelling in the life sciences.

David Fußhöller (ImmunoSensation/UKB) presents a short video of the event.

IRU Mathematics and Life Sciences, University of Bonn

The Interdisciplinary Research Unit Mathematics and Life Sciences houses three groups (Effland, Hasenauer, Thurley) at the interface of the ImmunoSensation and HCM Clusters of Excellence. With the combined expertise gathered here, we have a unique opportunity to create new mathematical models impacting the understanding of the immune system and diseases. The research topics range from information processing, immune response dynamics, treatment protocol modeling, sparse data in single cell approaches, cell behavior prediction, image analysis, and dynamic image analysis in the context of immune responses.
