Mathematical models have become an integral part of cancer biology. They are useful tools for deriving a mechanistic understanding of dynamic processes in cancer. The somatic evolutionary process, ...

The development of humans and other animals unfolds gradually over time, with cells taking on specific roles and functions ...

Three-dimensional snowflakes can now be grown in a computer using a program developed by mathematicians at UC Davis and the University of Wisconsin-Madison. No two snowflakes are truly alike, but they ...

For all the advances in computer power of recent years, many real-world processes are still so complex that they defy the capability of even the most advanced supercomputers to describe them - and to ...

On any given day in the United States, approximately 100,000 patients are waiting for a life-saving kidney transplant. The main problem is availability. In 2012, only 14,209 transplants took place in ...

Math anxiety is a significant challenge for students worldwide. While personalized support is widely recognized as the most ...

Mathematical models that predict policy-driving scenarios - such as how a new pandemic might spread or the future amount of irrigation water needed worldwide - may be too complex and delivering ‘wrong ...

Human cancers are thought to be sustained in their growth by a pathologic counterpart of normal adult stem cells: cancer stem cells. This concept was first developed in human myeloid leukemias and is ...
