I'm working on Mathematical Physiology.

Mathematical Physiology is a branch of biology in which mathematical models and equations are used to describe, explain, and predict physiological processes. Based upon observations, models can be developed that not only reflect the quantitative observations, but also predict what will happen under a given set of conditions. Additionally, based upon the mathematical structure of the model, the underlying reasons for the observations can sometimes be deduced.
