Don’t miss our new perspective paper “The future of mathematical oncology in the age of AI” #mathonco
🚀 New paper out !! Following a two-day international #mathonco meeting, we discuss how integrating mathematical modeling, AI, and data science is reshaping cancer research, highlighting future directions and key challenges ahead. Check it out !

The latest from @smbmathbiology.bsky.social #BiologyInNumbers: @math.onco's own Ranjini Bhattacharya, working with Joel Brown to study the role of #tumor cell-cell interactions in the context of #metabolism with #TheoreticalBiology #MathOnco […]
The usual recap of the previous year in blog posts...in the form if a blog post:

#MathOnco #2025 #blog #AI #MechanisticLearning #Education #Evolution #Cancer
Office wall with 2025 Science and Cell publications, and prior astrophotography.
Science cover (2025), integrating our smart phone app for community eclipse science (over 11,000 observations across North America!) with AI analysis of audio recordings across Monroe county to detect changes in bird behavior during the eclipse. Work led by Liz Aguilar, joint with Kim Rosvall and Dustin Reichard.
Cell article (2025) and cover submission, on our new cell behavior grammar to enable rapid, intuitive, and interpretable simulation models of complex cell systems. Work led by Jeanette Johnson, Daniel Bergman, and Heber Rocha, jointly with Elana Fertig, Lisa Coussens, Laura Heiser, Genevieve Stein-O'Brien, and Young Hwan-Chang.
New office decorating :-) #mathbio #mathonco 🧪
Thanks for a great 2025, @fertiglab.bsky.social @coussenslab.bsky.social @jeanettejohnson.bsky.social @heberlr.bsky.social @liz-aguilar.bsky.social @rosvall-lab.bsky.social @juncowren.bsky.social & amazing collabs!
Here's to new adventures in 2026!
#OpenSource for the win! #mathbio #mathonco 🧪
Our amazing collaborators at @bsc-cns.bsky.social are showing 50x speedups in @physicell.bsky.social after their deep analysis and optimization work. Code reviews and releases coming soon! :-) 1/2
Janeway's ImmunoBiology. (Not the Federation captain who will be born in Bloomington.)
I've started some light reading of a classic. 🧪 #mathbio #mathonco
I'm inspired by great collaborators with @coussenslab.bsky.social, @fertiglab.bsky.social, Laura Heiser, and others to delve deeper and improve my immunology fundamentals.
Now free to read in Genetics (@genetics-gsa.bsky.social): "Preventing evolutionary rescue in cancer using two-strike therapy" #mathonco study by @srishtipatil.bsky.social, @armaanahmed.bsky.social, Yannick Viossat and me, determining the optimal time to switch treatments. doi.org/10.1093/gene...
Just a few more days to apply to the fully-funded #PhD program in #MathOnco at @moffittnews.bsky.social . Deadline is December 1st!

Only a few hours left of this year's @mathonco.bsky.social #MoffittIMO workshop at @moffittnews.bsky.social and the teams I visited are doing just fine, thank you very much #MathOnco #AI #Cancer
Last speaker at #MathOnco25 is our own @mathonco.bsky.social Jeffrey West that provides a study of the #mathonco literature to produce this definition of MathOnco: the use of interpretable models to understand and improve cancer therapy
Thursday keynote at #MathOnco25 with @robjohnnoble.bsky.social showing a wealth of #MathOnco models of cancer evolution and evolutionary-enlightened therapies. Notice the bingo card: he showed enough different math models to fill up the card!
Paul @mathcancer.bsky.social was rocking the stage at #NFCR as part of the second panel discussion on ‘AI in cancer diagnosis and management’.
It’s cool to see the important role of #MathOnco folks in these types of discussions.
Well, this is going on next week, the #MathOnco25 #MathOnco conference in Tampa, FL
https://mathematical-oncology.org/mathonco25#agenda
Moffitt's #CSBC center represented by @sandy where he talks about #MathOnco models driving phase i trials to accelerate and enhance how clinical trials are done
#Antifragility in #cancer #treatments one step closer to clinical reality. By Jeff West writing on his #MathOnco research with @andriy-marusyk.bsky.social @sandyanderson.bsky.social et al
Fab closing presentation by friend and #mathonco agitator @gliomath.bsky.social from @cedarssinaicancer.bsky.social presenting cool new work, Every Patient Deserves Their Own Equation: Towards Digital Twins for Neuro-Oncology.
Math Onco Blog cover art 345: growing tumor attacked by tumor cells. A 3D simulation written entirely in a new model grammar without handwriting simulation code.
Excited to be this week's cover for the Math Oncology Blog (# 345): a 3D @physicell.bsky.social simulation written entirely in a new model grammar without code.
Jointly made with @heberlr.bsky.social, based on our recent @cp-cell.bsky.social paper. #Mathonco #mathbio 🧪

Our new paper is out today! PhD student Brian Johnson tour de force in applying and validating LLMs for phenotyping in massive EHR databases. Opens up many exciting opportunities for disease research using population-scale data #mathonco

Sandy Anderson starting a keynote talk in virtual patient trials and model-driven therapeutic planning.
Good friend @sandyanderson.bsky.social is giving the 1st keynote address on virtual cancer trials, virtual tumor boards, and using patient-calibrated models to plan individual treatments to delay therapeutic resistance.
Groundbreaking work making a difference in real patient trails! #mathonco
Grammar to develop #mathbio #mathonco models? Color me interested.
Great work by @mathcancer.bsky.social, @fertiglab.bsky.social and others
🚀Thrilled & honored to receive an @erc.europa.eu Starting Grant for my #mathonco project DIGIPRO - Digital twins for cancer progression based on multiscale structured models and mechanistic learning. Stay tuned for exciting work and job openings !
Great first talk of #mathonco session 2 at #UKMathBio from Alexis Farman, who has been modelling B-ALL
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
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
