Simula Summer School in Computational Physiology

This summer school will give you the opportunity to perform cutting edge research with the world's leading researchers in their fields.

Registration is closed.

 

1st meeting: 19 - 30 June, Oslo

2nd meeting: 7-15 August in San Diego, California

 

The University of California, San Diego, the University of Oslo, and Simula Research Laboratory host the 9th annual Joint Summer School in Computational Physiology 2022. The material covered by this summer school will focus on fundamental principles of mathematical modeling in electrophysiology and biomechanics. Specifically, the lectures will address cellular and subcellular biophysical processes responsible for electrical activation in cardiac muscle cells and neurons, frameworks for tissue-scale electrical signal propagation, and cellular- and tissue-level contractile mechanics in the heart.

 

The annual summer school is tailored for postgraduate students (MSc and early PhD-level students) and includes:

  • The opportunity to perform cutting-edge research with the world's leading researchers in their fields
  • 2 weeks of formal lectures and project work in June
    (at Simula Research Laboratory in Oslo, Norway)
  • 1.5 weeks of workshops, joint project work, and a final presentation in August
    (at the University of California, San Diego, USA)
  • A two-day Nature Masterclass workshop in scientific writing and publishing presented by two editors from the Nature journals.
  • Varied and engaging social activities
