Computational biology: How mathematical modelling can help cure cancer
from ResearchPod · host ResearchPod
Understanding how living cells work is difficult due to the number of varied and complex processes occurring in them. This complexity can be elucidated by breaking these processes down and focusing on a particular mechanism. One approach is to use mathematical equations – the basis of computational modelling. Dr Susan Mertins, the founder and CEO of Biosystem Strategies LLC, in the USA, is exploring how ordinary differential equations and machine learning can be applied to cancer data for biomarker discovery and drug development, leading to improvements in personalised medicine.Read more in Research OutreachRead some of their latest work here: https://doi.org/10.3389/fonc.2021.805592
