Mathematical modeling of diabetes Diabetes is the leading endocrine disease affecting socioeconomic development and has multiple pathogenic pathways. Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is the most common type of diabetes primarily …
Modeling of Drosophila Egg Chamber: Chemical Distribution, Force Balance, and Clustered Cell Migration The Drosophila melanogaster egg chamber provides an accessible biological model for clustered cell dynamics in development, metastasis, …
Dynamics of a linearly-perturbed May-Leonard competition model The May-Leonard model was introduced to examine the behavior of three competing populations where rich dynamics, such as limit cycles and nonperiodic cyclic …
Optimization of Immunotherapy Treatment Regimen for Glioblastoma The most common and aggressive primary brain cancer, Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), exhibits a highly immune-suppressed tumor microenvironment. Monotherapy with anti-PD-1—a common immunotherapy which …
Immunotherapy: Using math to help the immune system fight cancer In recent years, immunotherapy has been taking a central role in cancer therapies. In this talk we will provide an …
Production and Modeling of DNA Toroidal Condensates Via Liquid Crystal Theory Genomic organization conformations are widely studied in all cells, and bacteriophages offer simpler systems to study genomic packing. Experimental …
Registration Problems and Applications to Biomathematics I will discuss some mathematical approaches to various registration problems, where one seeks to align points from different spaces. These include matching points between …
Stochastic switching of delayed feedback suppresses oscillations in genetic regulatory systems Delays and stochasticity have both served as crucially valuable ingredients in mathematical descriptions of control, physical and biological systems. …
Deconstructing the Integrated Oscillator Model for Pancreatic Beta-Cells Electrical bursting oscillations in the beta-cells of pancreatic islets have been a focus of investigation for more than fifty years. This has …
Trait-shift induced interaction modification and unusual consequences onecosystem dynamics Ecosystems are traditionally modeled by networks of species with constant interaction strengths between them. However, it has been increasingly recognized that …
