Obiettivo del progetto (Objective)
'The goal of the DCP-PhysBio exchange program is to bring together several European teams (France, Germany, UK), Israel, as well as partners from Russia and Ukraine. We want to use our combined expertise to study various challenging dynamical and cooperative phenomena taking place in complex physical and biological systems. All the teams have a track record of research in these areas concentrating on particular numerical or theoretical facets, such that the network will synergistically amplify their strengths. The staff exchanges will include both a team research work on specific work packages which will further consolidate the research partnership, and a transfer of knowledge component of workshops, schools and seminars which will ensure an effective dissemination of results and foster interactions amongst the young researchers. If the aims of our proposal are to be achieved, then not only that a long-term research network will emerge but a number of PhD students and early career researchers will have had been mentored into, and intensively exposed to, a culture of international collaborative research.'
Introduzione (Teaser)
A new research project has brought together several key research institutions to study the dynamics of complex physical and biological systems.
Descrizione progetto (Article)
Complex systems are large biological, physical or social systems in which the overall behaviour cannot be predicted using knowledge of the system's individual properties. They are considered to be one of the major challenges in the world of physics today.
The EU-funded 'Dynamics and cooperative phenomena in complex physical and biological media' (http://www.2020-horizon.com/DCP-PHYSBIO-Dynamics-and-Cooperative-Phenomena-in-Complex-Physical-and-Biological-Media(DCP-PHYSBIO)-s4936.html (DCP-PHYSBIO)) project is studying dynamical and cooperative phenomena in complex physical and biological systems.
In the first part of the project, team members researched phase transitions and criticality (the point at which no phase boundaries exist) in complex systems. This was investigated for polymer matrices, which were treated as skeletons of the overall system.
The second part of the project has focused on dynamics in cells and sub-cellular domains. The work during this time involved statistical modelling of forces and movement.
DCP-PHYSBIO emphasises dissemination, and to this end has hosted a conference and supported research exchanges. The project is also promoting international collaboration, and advancing the current state of knowledge on complex systems.
