Dec. 1, 2017: internship on the optimal control of cell population.
We wish to maximize a production process based on the activity of differentiated cells that follow a Kolmogorov (conservation) type equation, with diffusion. So this is a problem of optimal control of a partial differential equation of parabolic type.
The study will be both theoretical and numerical. For the numerical aspects we will use the bocop.org library.
Starting on April 1,2017.
Duration: 3-6 months
Open to Mastere 2 students or students in the last year of engineering schools.
Candidates should have a background in optimal control and the numerical analysis of partial differential equations, and an interest in biological systems.
The internship will be conducted in collaboration with the Lifeware/Inbio team hosted at Institut Pasteur.
In the framework of the Inria Project Lab (IPL) cosy, with Inria teams at Grenoble, Sophia, Paris.
Application: Vitae + motivation letter to Frederic.Bonnans@inria.fr, Pierre.Martinon@inria;fr
