Are you ready to gain valuable insights from an industry expert? We are excited to invite you to an exclusive seminar featuring Professor Mark Coles – Kennedy Professor of Immunology, University of Oxford.
EVENT DETAILS:
– Topic: Mechanistic modeling, immune response modeling, AI for Science, therapeutic development, personalized pharmacology
– Date: Thursday, March 6th, 2025
– Time: 9AM – 10AM (GMT +7)
– Location: VinUniversity, Room I201
– Registration (ONLINE only): https://forms.gle/kWPT6j4dkQgdJgg38
WHAT TO EXPECT?
In this session, he will discuss the application of mechanistic modelling combined with the power of human experimental medicine to generate models of immune responses to accelerate and derisk therapeutic development and personalise pharmacology. Through proof of mechanistic clinical trials we are able to develop a synergistic cycle of modelling and experimentation. He will use exemplars on how we have integrated mechanistic mathematical frameworks as an input into neural networks to provide insight that cannot be identified using AI/ML-based approaches. Prof. Coles will also discuss the use of artificial neural networks to accelerate exploring parameter space in multiscale models of immune responses. Combing mechanistic models with ML/AI has massive potential to important on developing of the next generation of treatments for inflammatory disease and cancer.
ABOUT THE SPEAKER:
Mark Coles is a Kennedy Professor of Immunology, Kennedy Institute of Rheumatology, an affiliated professor at the Wolfson Centre for Mathematical Biology, Mathematical Institute at the University of Oxford. Mark’s research focuses on the interdisciplinary interface between immunology and mechanistic modelling and how to integrate gene expression data from human cell atlas into therapeutic development. He co-leads the Oxford Mathematical Immunology Group with Prof. Eamonn Gaffney (Mathematics Institute). He did his undergraduate degree in microbiology from Cornell University (USA), PhD from University of California Berkeley followed by a postdoc at NIMR (now CRICK Institute) in London, UK. He was previously a professor at the University of York, UK and co-directed the computational immunology laboratory.
