welcome

The MCMSC is an ASU center that strives to create a dynamic community of quantitative scientists and mathematicians, driven to contribute to the solution of problems in the biological, environmental, and social sciences. Through flexible research and cross-disciplinary programs, the MCMSC will train a new generation of scientists whose research is driven by “solution” rather than “discipline.” Armed with this mindset, the MCMSC will promote, support and encourage teams and faculty that do not hold a reductionist view of the world.  (Complete welcome message continued here.)

Sincerely,

Carlos Castillo-Chavez, Regents Professor and Joaquin Bustoz Jr. Professor of Mathematical Biology
Director, Mathematical, Computational and Modeling Sciences Center (MCMSC)
