We are pleased to announce the successful conclusion of the Mathematics for Our Health workshop, held on 7–8 November at the Politecnico di Milano.
With around 150 participants and 50 research posters, the event highlighted the transformative role of mathematics in healthcare and life sciences.
The workshop was part of the “Department of Excellence” initiative of the Department of Mathematics of Politecnico di Milano, Research Line 2 “Mathematics for Sustainability” coordinated by Luca Formaggia, funded by the Italian Ministry of University and Research (MUR) for 2023-27.
