Recent advances in live-imaging techniques provide dynamical data ranging from the cellular to the organism scale. Notwithstanding such experimental progress, quantitative theoretical models often remain lacking, even for moderately complex classes of biological systems. Here, I will summarize our ongoing efforts to implement computational frameworks for inferring predictive dynamical equations from multi-scale imaging data. As specific examples, we will consider models for cell locomotion, neural dynamics, mosquito flight behavior, and collective animal swarming.
