Questo lavoro propone una analisi critica sulle applicazioni della matematica allo studio di sistemi biologici complessi con particolare attenzione ai fenomeni della crescita tumorale in competizione con il sistema immunitario. Il lavoro delinea, a seguito di una descrizione fenomenologica, il problema matematico della modellizzazione multiscala e pone in evidenza come l'applicazione dei modelli allo studio di fenomeni di interesse nelle scienze biologiche generino problemi analitici e computazionali di notevole interesse e complessità. L'ultima parte del lavoro tratta alcune questioni relative alla formazione di matematici nel contesto nazionale ed europeo sempre con riferimento al tema trattato.
This paper deals with a critical analysis on the application of mathematics to the study of complex biological systems with particular attention to tumor growth phenomena in competition with immune system. The paper, after a phenomenological description, outlines the mathematical problem of multiscales modelling and shows how the application of models to he study of phenomena of interest in biological science s may generate analytic and computational problems of great interest and complexity. The last part of the paper deals with some aspects of the education in mathematical sciences in the national and European framework.
