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.

It was cloudy in Bloomington last night, but we did manage to catch traces of last night's Kp7 aurora. Original photo straight off the camera (left), and minor photoshop work to bring out the pillar (right). 🔭

Here's a faster shutter speed and increased ISO to catch the snowflakes a bit better. I definitely expect an impact on Smurf yields

It's snowing on our Smurf habitat. Smokes Smurf jerky production may be impacted.

Honestly, speaking on a panel at the National Press Club is a bucket list item for me. What a thrill!

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 🧪

Back at the Isaac Newton Institute this morning for the final day of our digital twin workshop. Starting off with a superstar and great friend Trachette Jackson, presenting her work to create virtual patient cohort for virtual immunotherapy trials. 🧪

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
