Radiobiology studies the effects of ionising radiation on living organisms. It aims to explain how these systems, which can range from a single cell to a whole organism, carry out their functions. Physiology focuses on organisms at the system level. In this Idea Bank, the author provides two classroom activities that integrate argumentation, explanation, and the use of evidence with biology content. Photobiology is the study of how cells and organisms change physically and chemically in response to non-ionising radiation. Life is all around us which means that there are enormous possibilities when considering a biology science project. Simply put, biology is the study of life. Palaeontology is the study of life which existed prior to the current 'Holocene' geological epoch. In order to ensure that you have a great biology project, it is important that you first understand biology and the scientific method.

Neuroscience is the study of the central nervous system, including the brain. Molecular Biology looks at the structure of cells, and the systems within them at the molecular level, to understand how they work and interact.

Microbiology is the study of the smallest, usually single-celled, organisms such as bacteria and viruses. Genetics is the study of genes - the stretches of DNA found in almost every creature which acts as the blueprint for their bodies. Of particular interest is the investigation of: a) non-evolutionary equations or systems of the Camassa-Holm type b) algebral-geometric properties of new evolutionary equations c) mechanical-geometric properties of Ibragimov’s conservation law theory Ģ) study and modelling of biological phenomena, with special emphasis on the modelling of cancer, using numerical and computational methods for simulations, and Lie symmetries to obtain qualitative information and explicit analytical solutions ģ) study of elliptical systems on manifolds, where Lie symmetries would be the basic tool to determine the group of invariance and construction of conservation laws that would enable a qualitative analysis of the properties of the proposed solutions for the investigated problems.Į-mail: Curriculum Lattes (research projects, publications and academic info)Ĭoordinator’s research grants, scholarships and main publications (FAPESP)Can't find what you're looking for?

It should be emphasized that the mathematical study of non-linear phenomena is not a simple task, often requiring the use of special analytical techniques or numerical and computational methods. Nonlinear phenomena are quite common in science and a vibrant field of research in pure and applied mathematics. However, after a specific time, the number of individuals has an opposite effect on their growth, thus combining a linear effect (growth) with a non-linear one (control). An example of nonlinearity is the growth of a given population of individuals in a medium: at low time scales, the population grows at a rate proportional to the number of individuals. The more realistic a model becomes, the more likely it is to incorporate non-linear effects.

The mathematical description of physical and biological phenomena is often performed through mathematical modeling involving differential equations.
