Biography
Dr. Bo-Wei Qin received his PhD in Applied Mathematics from City University of Hong Kong in 2017. Before joining Research Institute of Intelligent Complex Systems, he worked as postdoctoral fellow at School of Mathematical Sciences at Fudan University. The major focus of his study is computational systems biology. This encompasses the qualitative analysis on the emergent behavior in complex biological systems and the quantitative investigation on biological control. His results have turned into peer-reviewed journal including those top journals: Physical Review Letters, Nature Communications, Physica D, etc. He has been awarded the Shanghai 'Excellent Postdoctoral Research Fellow' and presided a project of China Postdoctoral Science Foundation. He has been working as a young associate research professor in Research Institute of Intelligent Complex Systems of Fudan University and teaching Advanced Calculus and other undergraduate courses since May 2022. He presided one project for young scholars and one general project of the National Natural Science Foundation of China. Dr. Bo-Wei Qin’s research interest is computational systems biology, especially, the physics of complex biological systems together with developing mathematical theories and methods to solve issues arising from biological context. Recently, he focused on various problems regarding biological oscillations which are pervasive from micro-scale to macro-scale biological systems, such as, circadian rhythms arising from gene regulatory networks, pulsatile oscillations in neural networks and population fluctuation in ecosystems.
