In this talk, I will illustrate how the fractional counterparts of many classical reaction-diffusion systems can exhibit dramatically different dynamics to those of standard diffusion, and as such can greatly extend the modelling capabilities of basic models in physics. In particular, the biophysical interpretation of these systems in the context of excitable media will be discussed, with broad implications in cardiac electrophysiology. The proposed approach may also have important applications in the clinical identification of cardiac structural abnormalities.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EAlfonso Bueno-Orovio, PhD.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ESenior Research Scientist\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EUniversity of Oxford - Department of Computer Science Parks Road, Oxford OX1 3QD United Kingdom \u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/www.cs.ox.ac.uk\/people\/alfonso.bueno-orovio\/\u0022\u003Ehttps:\/\/www.cs.ox.ac.uk\/people\/alfonso.bueno-orovio\/\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EDepartment of Computer Science: Alfonso Bueno-Orovio\u0026lt;\u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/www.cs.ox.ac.uk\/people\/alfonso.bueno-orovio\/\u0022\u003Ehttps:\/\/www.cs.ox.ac.uk\/people\/alfonso.bueno-orovio\/\u003C\/a\u003E\u0026gt;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022http:\/\/www.cs.ox.ac.uk%3chttp:\/www.cs.ox.ac.uk\u0022\u003Ewww.cs.ox.ac.uk\u0026lt;http:\/\/www.cs.ox.ac.uk\u003C\/a\u003E\u0026gt;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022http:\/\/www.cs.ox.ac.uk\/ccs\/\u0022\u003Ehttp:\/\/www.cs.ox.ac.uk\/ccs\/\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":"","field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Rediscovering the dynamics of classical systems by fractional diffusion"}],"uid":"28004","created_gmt":"2016-07-21 11:48:45","changed_gmt":"2017-04-13 21:15:21","author":"Dione Morton","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2016-07-22T11:00:00-04:00","event_time_end":"2016-07-22T12:00:00-04:00","event_time_end_last":"2016-07-22T12:00:00-04:00","gmt_time_start":"2016-07-22 15:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2016-07-22 16:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2016-07-22 16:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"hg_media":{"554581":{"id":"554581","type":"image","title":"Prof. Alfonso Bueno-Orovio","body":null,"created":"1469115771","gmt_created":"2016-07-21 15:42:51","changed":"1475895353","gmt_changed":"2016-10-08 02:55:53","alt":"Prof. Alfonso Bueno-Orovio","file":{"fid":"218199","name":"alfonsobueno.png","image_path":"\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/alfonsobueno.png","image_full_path":"http:\/\/hg.gatech.edu\/\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/alfonsobueno.png","mime":"image\/png","size":44183,"path_740":"http:\/\/hg.gatech.edu\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/740xx_scale\/public\/images\/alfonsobueno.png?itok=fi6PA_TC"}}},"media_ids":["554581"],"groups":[{"id":"126011","name":"School of Physics"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"166937","name":"School of Physics"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1795","name":"Seminar\/Lecture\/Colloquium"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78751","name":"Undergraduate students"},{"id":"78761","name":"Faculty\/Staff"},{"id":"174045","name":"Graduate students"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EDione Morton\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022mailto:dione.morton@physics.gatech.edu\u0022\u003Edione.morton@physics.gatech.edu\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
