Title : Spatially explicit models: some methods of analysis and applications in biosciences

Abstract : 

During this talk I’ll give a general overview of the research lines on spatially explicit models covered in my group BionamiX at Ghent University. Then I’ll go in more detail for what concerns the methodological advances we were able to achieve in the field of cellular automata, and I’ll illustrate some of the more practical studies we completed over the last few years. The latter illustrate how spatially explicit models can support decision-making and policy.

The seminar will take place in Room 266 at the Faculty of Sciences.
