 Introduction:  
  This mini-symposium focuses on recent advances in the analysis and numerical treatment of nonlocal models emerging in biology and ecology. Such models, which often incorporate long-range interactions, spatial heterogeneity, or memory effects, provide powerful tools for capturing complex biological phenomena, including population dispersal, collective behavior, disease dynamics, and pattern formation. The symposium will highlight theoretical developments in the well-posedness, stability, and asymptotic behavior of nonlocal partial differential equations, as well as the design and implementation of efficient computational methods. Contributions will span a broad spectrum of applications and mathematical approaches, fostering interdisciplinary dialogue between analysis, computation, and biological modeling.
