DESCRIPTION:Abstract Over the last decade or so\, there has been an increa
 sed focus on the  appearance of mixed-mode oscillations in a variety of ap
 plications\, including  cell dynamics and the environment. Taking a broad 
 definition of mixed-mode  oscillations\, the talk will cover a number of b
 iological phenonema that have  mixed-mode oscillations as their basis.Thes
 e include more familiar dynamics  related to canards and coherence resonan
 ce\, as well as new mechanisms appearing  in systems with delays and nonsm
 ooth dynamics. We concentrate on applications in  which these mixed mode o
 scillations are in fact noise-induced\, and discuss how  the fundamental m
 echanisms in these examples appear broadly. These ideas point  to a number
  of opportunities in transfering ideas between different areas of  life sc
 iences\, as well as bringing new ideas to biological modeling from other  
 areas of science and engineering.&nbsp\;
