Integrating Mathematical Modeling, Numerical Simulation and Artificial Intelligence Techniques for Biological and Health-related Problems.

The student will be a member of a team comprised of professors and researchers from the Applied Mathematics area of the E.T.S.I. de Minas y Energía (ETSIME) and the Biomedical Technology Center (CTB) of the Polytechnic University of Madrid. Computer personnel and third-year doctoral students will also participate. Both institutions are highly regarded in the field of mathematical models, numerical simulation and artificial intelligence, and their staff has extensive experience in these areas.

The student’s role will be to study various mathematical models of biological, biotechnological and health-related interest, developing efficient calculation algorithms for model resolution and employing artificial intelligence techniques for parameter estimates and model improvement and adjustment. The programming languages Python and R, already known to Biotechnology students for having been used in various subjects, will be used. There will be active collaboration with a doctoral student from the “Mathematical Engineering, Statistics and Operations Research” (IMEIO) program, a joint UPM-UCM, whose thesis is focused mainly on numerical simulation of epidemics, particularly COVID-19, which can offer interesting collaborations in some of the applications developed in this training project. Collaboration will also be established with students and alumni at the Biomedical Technology Center. Therefore, the student will have to develop his or her activity in both institutions.

In addition to the CTB, the student will occasionally collaborate with another research center of the UPM, the Center for Computational Simulation (CCS), which is affiliated with some of the professors involved in these practices, which can help in the computational tasks that are developed.

Organization of the circle of conferences organized at the Colegio Mayor. During my stay we brought such illustrious people among many others as:

• Manuel Marchena Gómez magistrate of the Supreme Court, being the president of the Second Criminal Chamber.
• Maite Araluce Letamendia. President of the Association of Victims of Terrorism since 2018.

Organization and management of different types of cultural outings: Museo del Prado and Hipódromo de la Zarzuela, among others.

Member of the Debate Commission. Develop organizational tasks of the II Adolfo Suárez Debate Tournament as well as the management of introductory debate classes.
