[00848] Mathematical modelling of neuroblast migration in the mouse brain
Session Time & Room : 3C (Aug.23, 13:20-15:00) @G710
Type : Contributed Talk
Abstract : This talk is devoted to the mathematical modeling of migration of neuroblasts, precursor cells of neurons, with PDE. The pathway is determined mainly by attraction forces and the heterogeneous mobility of neuroblasts in different regions of the brain. In numerical simulations, the application of novel discontinuous Galerkin methods allows to maintain the properties of the continuous model. We present some successful computer tests including parameter adjust to fit real data from rodent brains.
