Biological Interfaces

This two day meeting brought together computer modellers and experimentalists to discuss problems at the biological interface, and their relevance to understanding important biological systems and bio-inspired materials. Many aspects of such work were discussed, including theory, modelling tools, numerical methods and applications. We continued to foster participation from both the public and commercial health sectors.
