Abstract :
The present paper studies a feedback regulation problem that arises in at least two different biological applications. The feedback regulation problem under consideration may be interpreted as an adaptive control problem for tuning bifurcation parameters. The goal of the paper is to formulate this problem and to present some preliminary results.
