Probably not standard in many PhD courses (that should change!) but our @moffittnews.bsky.social @mathonco.bsky.social students had a lecture on science communication and outreach by the one and only @parmvir.com @scientistsinc.org

Evolutionary theory tells us that to cure #ovariancancer we need to target it when its most vulnerable – at the end of 1st-line tx. The challenge: that’s also when treatment-induced toxicity is greatest.
Check out our new #IMO12 pre-print with 3 ideas how to tackle this! @mathonco.bsky.social

Human interpretable grammar encodes multicellular systems biology models to democratize virtual cell laboratories

We developed a plain text modeling language—a cell behavior hypothesis grammar—to easily build virtual cell models and connect them to data, helping scientists to unlock the hidden dynamics of tissues...

It was a great meeting and made me more optimistic about the role of AI in #MathOnco research

Over a month ago a bunch of #MathOnco and #AIOnco researchers got together in Syracuse to discuss how #AI may and may not change the field. Here are some thoughts in a collective effort led by @rrockne.bsky.social:

Plenary this morning @smbmathbiology.bsky.social by Mary Myerscough (U of Sydney) modeling atherosclerotic plaques. Included a great slide showing why #mathmodeling. The process of formulating models is key (even if it not always leads to a publication).
