DESCRIPTION:A popular phrase in statistics says that “all models are wro
 ng”\, because statistical or scientific models often simplify reality an
 d do not capture the full complexity of an observed phenomenon. In this ta
 lk\, I will discuss how we can improve models by quantifying this lack of 
 complexity through the introduction of random terms. I will present recent
  results on a classical biophysical model for cell repolarisation\, where 
 the additional random terms lead to biologically relevant effects\, and ex
 plain how such a model can be validated on real data.
