Abstract

Resilience may be defined as the ability of a system to recover from a stressor of sufficiently large magnitude that the system is pushed into a state far from its original equilibrium state, ultimately retaining essential identity and function. In this talk, we will discuss the distinction between related concepts of homeostasis, robustness, and resilience. We will describe a dynamical systems modeling approach to studying resilience, and present some examples based on the stimulus-response experiments conducted in the Women's Health and Aging Study.
