The objective of this chapter is to give an insight of the mathematical modellng of hematopoiesis using multi-agent systems. Several questions may arise then: what is hematopoiesis and why is it interesting to study this problem from a mathematical point of view? Has the multi-agent system approach been the only attempt done until now? What does it bring more than other techniques? What were the results obtained? What is there left to do?
