Abstract: Abstract This article describes Dr. Andrei Yakovlev’s unique philosophy of mathematical modeling in biomedical sciences. Although he never formulated it in a systematic way, it has always been central to his work and manifested amply in the course of the author’s 22-year research collaboration with this visionary scholar. We address methodological tensions between mathematics and biomedical sciences, epistemological status of mathematical models, and various methodological questions of a more practical nature arising in mathematical modeling and statistical data analysis including model selection, model identifiability, and concordance between the model and the observables.
