DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/cam/58/">Bra
 in membranes and vasculature: a computational mathematics tale of dimensio
 nal gaps</a>\nby Marie E. Rognes (Simula Research Laboratory) as part of C
 AM seminar\n\nLecture held in MV:L14.\n\nAbstract\nStructurally\, brain ti
 ssue is characterized by thin cell membranes and slender vessels\, definin
 g submanifolds of codimension one and two respectively.  Functionally\, yo
 ur brain fundamentally relies on the transport of ions and nutrients and m
 ovement of water in and between these spaces. These physiological processe
 s are clearly crucial for brain function and health\, but the precise mech
 anisms and their association with neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzhe
 imer's and Parkinson's disease and neurological events such as seizures re
 main only partially understood. Notably\, mathematical and computational m
 odelling are beginning to play an important role in gaining new insight. I
 n this talk\, I will discuss key mathematical\, numerical and computationa
 l challenges associated with modelling brain mechanics and transport acros
 s scales with an emphasis on coupled systems of partial differential equat
 ions with dimensional gaps.\n
