Mathematics and Biosciences in Interaction Managing Editor Wolfgang Alt Division of Theoretical Biology Botanical Institute University of Bonn Kirschallee 1 0-53115 Bonn Germany e-mail: [email protected] Editorial Board Fred Adler (Dept. Mathematics, Salt Loke City) Mark Chaplain (Dept. Math. & Computer Sciences, Dundee) Andreas Deutsch (Div. Theoretical Biology, Bonn) Andreas Dress (Math. Institut, Bielefeld) David Krakauer (Dept. of Zoology, Oxford) Robert T. Tranquillo (Dept. Chem. Engineering, Minneapolis) Mathematics and Biosciences in Interaction is devoted to the publication of advanced textbooks, monographs, and multi-authored volumes on mathematical concepts in the biological sciences. It concentrates on truly interdisciplinary research presenting currently important biological fields and relevant methods of mathematical modelling and analysis. Emphasis will be put on mathematical concepts and methods being developed and retined in close relation to problems and results relevant for experimental bioscientists. The series aims at publishing not only monographs by individual authors presenting their own results, but welcomes, in particular, volumes arising from collaborations, joint research programs or work shops These can feature concepts and open problems as a result of such collaborative work, possibly illustrated with computer software providing statistical analyses, simulations or visualizations. The envisaged readership includes researchers and advanced students in applied mathematics - numerical analysis as well as statistics, genetiCS, cell biology, neurobiology, bioinformatics, biophysics, bio(medical) engineering, biotechnology, evolution and behavioral sciences, theoretical biology, systems theory.

ISBN 978-3-0348--9826-3 987654321 Preface Six years after the first International Workshop on "Biological Motion" took place at Konigswinter near Bonn in March 1989 (see Alt & Hoffmann 1990) a subsequent Workshop, organized under the same DFG Research Program (SFB 256: Nonlin ear Partial Differential Equations), assembled in March 1995 to concentrate on an important sub-topic of the first meeting - "Cell and Tissue Motion" . Abount 45 sci entists with specialities ranging from biology and medicine to physics and applied mathematics, from ten European countries and from North America, gathered at the hospitable conference centre of the "Landjugendakademie" in Bonn-Rottgen. The presentations of physico-chemical theories and mathematical models in ple nary talks, as well as their discussion in several work sessions, concentrated on eight particular themes: Animal Tissues, Plant Tissues, Proteins and Forces of Motion, Cytoplasm and Fiber Dynamics, Cell Shape and Motion Analysis, Loco motion Models, Swarm Models and, especially, Dictyostelium Aggregation. During the whole conference the atmosphere was open minded and very stimulating, not only in the formal sessions but also down in the "Schlof3keller", at the bowling alley, and on the communal afternoon hike through the Kottenforst. We were glad and thankful that so many biologists and mathematicians par ticipated in the meeting and especially that so many young scientists attended including students, coworkers and colleagues from Universities and Research Insti tutes near Bonn. Moreover, we express our special thanks to the "senior" partici pants, Prof. Gunter Gerisch (Munchen), Prof. Andrej Grebecki (Warszawa), Prof. Zigmunt Hejnowicz (Katowice) and, in particular, to the emeritus biology Profes sors of the "Rheinische Friedrich-Wilhelms-U niversitat Bonn": Prof. Karl-Ernst Wohlfarth-Bottermann (formerly at the Institute of Cytology and Micromorphol ogy) and Prof. Andreas Sievers (Botanical Institute), who have both provided essential support to the local organizing group "Abteilung Theoretische Biologie" since the time of its foundation in 1986. Finally, we acknowledge that the prepa ration and realization of the Workshop would not have been so easy and effective without the kind help of Marianne and Anke Thiedemann, the secretaries of the SFB 256, as well as Edith Geigant, Boris Hinz, Volker Lendowski and Beate Pfist ner, who also helped with the production of this book. In a final plenary discussion, we identified a series of "hot topics" that ei ther had been treated in single sessions or else had emerged as guiding principles during the meeting. These we collected into four or five groups, and we appointed one or two coordinators for each group who kindly undertook the task of con tacting possible authors to contribute articles for the forthcoming book, of having the articles reviewed by independent referees, of ensuring that the articles were VI Preface revised accordingly and, finally, of writing an Introduction as well as a concluding Discussion section for each Chapter. After more than one year of mutual corre spondence, exchange of ideas and careful revision of the text, formulas and figures, we are now happy to present the outcome of these activities in the finished book. We have tried in selecting the material presented not only to reflect the course of the discussions at the Workshop but also, where appropriate, to cover more recent results and point to important problems of current and future research. To receive additional information about single contributions, including avail able simulation software, the reader may contact the authors or one of the editors, preferably in Bonn (see the List of Addresses at the end of the book). Furthermore, we (the editors) offer to provide English translations of the German quotations heading some of the Chapter Introductions. Obviously, this selection of remarks by scientists from the first half of the century is biased but might show the kind of inspiration that biologists during this period had and, possibly, still have on biophysical and biomathematical thought.
