Title: Recovering parameters in mathematical models

Abstract: Ordinary differential equation (ODE) models are very common in applications. This talk addresses, for ODE models that are linear, the problem of when parameters can be recovered from data. I will highlight how techniques from differential algebra reduce the problem to one that can be solved using linear algebra and combinatorics. I will also highlight some examples coming from biology. No background will be assumed.
