自1990年代以来，赫瑞瓦特大学就设立了国际知名的数学生物学，生态学和医学研究组。该小组成员包括乔纳森·谢拉特（Jonathan Sherratt），安迪·怀特（Andy White）和凯文·画家（Kevin Painter），他们都是数学生物学领域的领先研究人员，在国际上享有很高的声誉。基于这个研究小组的力量，我们很高兴能够启动全新的数学生物学，生态学和医学理学硕士课程。该计划包括高水平和高质量的课程，将提供有关生命科学问题的数学建模，研究这些模型的数学技术以及使用数据来告知和测试模型的全面培训。在夏季
Since the 1990s Heriot-Watt University has had an internationally renowned research group in Mathematical Biology, Ecology and Medicine. This group includes Jonathan Sherratt, Andy White and Kevin Painter, all of whom are leading researchers in mathematical biology with strong international reputations. Building on the strength of this research group we are excited to be launching a brand new MSc Programme in Mathematical Biology Ecology and Medicine. The programme includes high level and high quality courses that will provide a comprehensive training in mathematical modelling of problems in the life sciences, in mathematical techniques to study these models, and in the use of data to both inform and test the models. During the summer you will do an extended project on a cutting-edge research topic that is aligned with our research interests. These include work on wound healing, pattern formation in developmental biology, epidemics, cancer, semi-arid ecosystems, and evolution. The programme will open up for you a wide range of career paths and possibilities for future study.
