This workshop aims to highlight the importance of state-of-art mathematical modelling for complex soft matter material development. Models and basic understanding is not just of theoretical interest, but indeed is a  key requirement for being able to access and further develop the true potential of these materials - to optimise them, to combine them into new materials, and to use them for creating new devices, with predefined abilities and behaviours.

This knowledge exchange event by the Newton Gateway to Mathematics takes place as part of the INI Research Programme on the Fickle Heart – within the workshop on Uncertainty Quantification for Cardiovascular Simulations. This particular event will open up the discussion to a wider audience, including those working in biotechnology, healthcare, pharmaceuticals and the public sector.

The focus for the day is matching the challenges faced by stakeholders involved in the management and planning of different landscape domains in the UK with advances in modelling approaches
