The moment of truth at the @mathonco.bsky.social #MoffittIMO workshop when the 5 groups deliver their final presentations. Before that @sandyanderson.bsky.social has a few words about the department, @moffittnews.bsky.social and shows our @scientistsinc.org video with last year's edition

Just going around some of the groups working at the @moffittnews.bsky.social @mathonco.bsky.social #MoffittIMO 2025 and the energy is palpable! I think the judges on Friday morning are going to be blown away by the ideas these guys are working on!

Last keynote at #MathOnco25 by Sarah Bruningk talking about #AI in #Medicine. While generally optimistic about AI in medicine she is aware of the challenge that AI works best when there is a lot of data and that is almost never the case in clinical oncology

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!

Great talk, lots of cool dynamics in Galit's talk and great call to arms from her at #MathOnco25. While @harvard.edu's federal grants have been suspended the research is still great and worth doing
