#UKMathBio
Now Anne Skeldon is here to tell us how bad getting up at 6am to come to #UKMathBio was 😅 - Mathematical modelling of sleep for healthy human function in the 21st century

Packed room for the start of the first #UKMathBio conference - looks like the rain hasn't put people off the trip to Birmingham!

The first set of parallel sessions are kicking off now at #UKMathBio - this morning I'm in the #mathonco session, kicked off by Einar Bjarki Gunnarsson on optimal dosing strategies

We're back up and running after lunch - after David Rand's talk on the neural tube (which I forgot to get a photo for, sorry) we're now hearing about Weini Huang's work on ecDNA #UKMathBio

On a train full of mathematical biologists heading to #UKMathBio!

Excitingly we're about to pass through Birmingham Int station, one of the few mainline UK stations which has to be explicitly type cast so that it isn't mistaken for a floating point

Great first talk of #mathonco session 2 at #UKMathBio from Alexis Farman, who has been modelling B-ALL

I think this is the way to go - plus it saves a letter on the hashtag, which could be pretty vital if there are some long talk title names #UKMathBio

Now time for @kitcgallagher.bsky.social on cool work with @mathonco.bsky.social on clinically applicable mathematical biomarkers using a Lotka-Volterra model #UKMathBio

Great start to day two of #UKMathBio - after @profruthbaker.bsky.social's opening talk we now have Katie Bentley from @crick.ac.uk introducing us to the lunatic fringe hidden in the mouse retina...

Our final talk of the morning at #UKMathBio is from Nikolaos Sfakianakis, who presents some very cool (and slightly gruesome) modelling of a hybrid 3D framework to describe tumour metastasis

First up at #UKMathBio is Tiina Roose, who makes a great case that maths can be central to every stage of experimental data collection, particularly imaging! #MathBio shouldn't just be an endpoint where we take fully processed experiments and model them completely separately from everything else

Looking forward to heading to Birmingham tomorrow where I think the big question of the UK Mathematical Biology conference will be answered...

...is it #UKMathBio or #UKMathsBio? The anglophile side of me feels like it should have an s, but it just doesn't match up with anything else! 😅

Next up at #UKMathBio is @gibin.bsky.social with our first foray of the conference into #mathonco, with hybrid ABMs modelling the bystander effect in radiotherapy
