This volume contains most of the talks presented at the Journ~es de la Soci~t~ Math~ma~ique de France entitled "Rhythms in Biology and other fields of application -Determi nistic and Stochastic Approaches" held in Luminy from the 14th th to the 18 of September 1981. The aim of our meeting was to bring together scien tists from different disciplines to discuss a common topic and to stimulate exchanges between participants. We hope that this goal was reached. This volume is divided into four chapters. In each one the papers are arranged in alphabetical order by first author. Chapters one and two contain papers devoted to descrip tion or modelling of rhythmic biolog.ical phenomena. Chapters three and four deal with models for the study of rhythms invol ving the use of deterministic or stochastic tools capable of fruitful transfer to Biology. We are pleased that these Proceedings appear in a series which constitutes an interface between Biologists and Mathema ticians. We are indebted to all who provided us with their help, particularly the Centre International de Rencontres Math~matiques (C.I.R.M.) at Luminy, the Soci~t~ Mathematique de France (S.M.F.), the Delegation aux Relations Universitaires Internationales (D.R.U.I.) and the Laboratoire d'Informatique et de Math~matiques Appliquees de Grenoble (I.M.A.G.). Special thanks are due to Mrs. A. Litman for her dedi cation and her efficiency throughout the organization of this meeting. G~enobie, Vecembe~ 1982.
