Deadline for Application Submission: July 16, 2010 Funding: NSF financial support for graduate students and young researchers Description: The goal of the workshop is to identify new challenges and opportunities for the theory, modeling and simulation of soft materials, and to investigate the growing and promising role of applied and computational mathematics in meeting those challenges. Workshop's topics include adaptive and robust numerical methods, multiscale modeling and simulation, phase field models, and their application in the understanding of polymers, liquid crystals, bio-materials, phase transformations and microstructure evolution, as well as morphology, pattern formation, and self-assembly in materials. Contributed presentations in either a short lecture or poster format are invited in all areas consistent with the conference themes. Young researchers, women and minorities are encouraged to apply. Deadline for financial support application: July 16, 2010, although latter applications will be considered if funds remain uncommitted.

The main goal of the present edition is to discuss recent advances that take us from observing randomness and variability in cells to establishing the functional roles of noise in life. The topics to be covered include, but are not limited to, regulation of gene expression, cell signaling and signal transduction, development and differentiation, biological rhythms, molecular motors, and intra- and inter-cellular spatiotemporal dynamics. The application deadline is June 30, 2010. The list of accepted participants and contributions will be made public by July 15, 2010.
