Mathematics and Biosciences in Interaction
Note:
Six years after the first International Workshop on "Biological Motion" took place at Konigswinter near Bonn in March 1989 (see Alt & Hoffmann 1990) a subsequent Workshop, organized under the same DFG Research Program (SFB 256: Nonlin ear Partial Differential Equations), assembled in March 1995 to concentrate on an important sub-topic of the first meeting - "Cell and Tissue Motion" . Abount 45 sci entists with specialities ranging from biology and medicine to physics and applied mathematics, from ten European countries and from North America, gathered at the hospitable conference centre of the "Landjugendakademie" in Bonn-Rottgen. The presentations of physico-chemical theories and mathematical models in ple nary talks, as well as their discussion in several work sessions, concentrated on eight particular themes: Animal Tissues, Plant Tissues, Proteins and Forces of Motion, Cytoplasm and Fiber Dynamics, Cell Shape and Motion Analysis, Loco motion Models, Swarm Models and, especially, Dictyostelium Aggregation. During the whole conference the atmosphere was open minded and very stimulating, not only in the formal sessions but also down in the "Schlof3keller", at the bowling alley, and on the communal afternoon hike through the Kottenforst. We were glad and thankful that so many biologists and mathematicians par ticipated in the meeting and especially that so many young scientists attended including students, coworkers and colleagues from Universities and Research Insti tutes near Bonn. Moreover, we express our special thanks to the "senior" partici pants, Prof. Gunter Gerisch (Munchen), Prof. Andrej Grebecki (Warszawa), Prof
