Centre for Mathematical Medicine and Biology

The Centre for Mathematical Medicine and Biology (CMMB) is based within the School of Mathematical Sciences and comprises members of the University of Nottingham who use mathematical methods to provide insights into biological and biomedical phenomena. We aim to promote the application of mathematical modelling to medicine and the biomedical sciences, and to stimulate multi-disciplinary research within the University and beyond.

The CMMB is an Institute Partner of the Mathematical Biosciences Institute (MBI) at Ohio State University. The partnership funded an international conference in Nottingham in September 2012 on 'Multiscale Modelling in Medicine and Biology.'

Scholarships are now available to undertake a PhD within CMMB - see our vacancies page for details.
