Mathematics and Biology: Young Investigators International Workshop, Université de Rouen - April 4-6, 2011

"A Comparison of Optimal Design Methods in Inverse Problems"
An introduction to Optimal Design methods (D-optimal, E-optimal, and SE-optimal). The optimal design methods are compared based on their resulting standard errors. This comparison is given for the logistic example.

"An Introduction to Optimal Experimental Design and Generalized Sensitivity Functions"
An introduction to optimal design methods which use information from the mathematical model to find the optimal sampling distribution for experimental data. Generalized sensitivity functions (GSF) are also introduced. GSF's describe the sensitivity of the parameter estimates to the data.

"Analysis of a Mathematical Model for the First-Pass Dynamics of Antibiotics Acting on the Cardiovascular System"
We present a model of an antibiotic drug's first-pass through the blood. We analyze the model and present various dosing strategies to maximize absorption in the lungs and minimize absorption by the cardiac tissue.
