Random walks in a biological world. Tuesday, 11 August 2015. Video: Squirrels, Cancers, and other Invaders. Recently, at the Isaac Newton Institute's program on Coupling Geometric PDEs with Physics for Cell Morphology, Motility and Pattern Formation. Our very own Professor Philip Maini, FRS, gave another one of his classic talks, featuring (almost) everything from squirrels to cancer, including the admission of crying and how to cope with it ( spoiler. The talk was cleverly titled: ". Watch the video here.

WCMBlog: Ebola Crisis Hackathon
http://wcmb-oxford.blogspot.com/2014/11/ebola-crisis-hackathon.html
Random walks in a biological world. Monday, 24 November 2014. The Ebola Virus has killed almost 6000 people in West Africa since Dec 2013. It was with these obstacles in mind that the Said Business School's Oxford Launchpad. While researching the problems around the diagnosis and treatment of Ebola, before the hackathon, I read about the potential for Ebola to be diagnosed using mobile apps. Mobile phones are a primary communication method in West Africa. On the Hackathon in last week's New Scientist.

Boundaries and evolutionary dynamics in cancer – CancerEvo
https://cancerevo.wordpress.com/2015/06/03/boundaries-and-evolutionary-dynamics-in-cancer
Studying cancer using the lens of Darwinian evolution and mathematical modelling. Boundaries and evolutionary dynamics in cancer. Evolutionary Game Theory (EGT) is an incredibly useful mathematical tool in which to frame how the interactions. Between different cell types shapes selection and thus the evolutionary dynamics in cancer. One of the virtues of EGT is its simplicity. Space is known to play a role in many key aspects of cancer but conventional EGT treats it only implicitly. Jacob G. Scott. In it...
