SUMMARY:I Love Biology. Why Don't Biologists Love Theory?
DESCRIPTION:Interdisciplinary Dialogue\n\nI Love Biology. Why Don't Biolog
 ists Love Theory?\n\nLindahl, Coveney\n\nOver several decades, scientific 
 computing has delivered multiple outstanding success stories in hard physi
 cs and engineering applications. This has gradually expanded to fundamenta
 l life science applications such as bioinformatics, but one of the greates
 t challenges is how to replicate this impact for infinitely more complex s
 ystems such as entire cells, organs, or diseases. This is a fascinating ar
 ea where the medical top-down phenomenological view is increasingly challe
 nged and complemented by modeling and computational approaches. In this di
 alogue, Erik Lindahl will interview Peter Coveney about his career, passio
 ns and challenges in bringing physics-based and computational models into 
 life sciences and medicine. What are the limits of models and computations
 ? Will we be able to produce “digital twin” models of an entir
 e human for research and disease treatment? What are the greatest challeng
 es and rewards in a cross-disciplinary field, and why do biologists and ph
 ysicians not love theory?
