DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/SNPDEA/14/">
 The brain's waterscape</a>\nby Marie E. Rognes (Simula) as part of "Partia
 l Differential Equations and Applications" Webinar\n\n\nAbstract\nYour bra
 in has its own waterscape: whether you are reading or sleeping\, fluid flo
 ws around or through the brain tissue and clears waste in the process. The
 se physiological processes are crucial for the well-being of the brain. In
  spite of their importance we understand them but little. Mathematics and 
 numerics could play a crucial role in gaining new insight. Indeed\, medica
 l doctors express an urgent need for modeling of water transport through t
 he brain\, to overcome limitations in traditional techniques. Surprisingly
  little attention has been paid to the numerics of the brain’s waterscap
 e however\, and fundamental knowledge is missing. In this talk\, I will di
 scuss mathematical models and numerical methods for the brain's waterscape
  across scales - from viewing the brain as a poroelastic medium at the mac
 roscale and zooming in to studying electrical\, chemical and mechanical in
 teractions between brain cells at the microscale.\n
