Mathematical models have become an integral part of cancer biology. They are useful tools for deriving a mechanistic understanding of dynamic processes in cancer. The somatic evolutionary process, ...

Researchers have developed a three-dimensional mathematical model of prostate cancer. The model depicts various processes, including tumour growth, genetic evolution and tumour cell competition.

Abstract: An oncological antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) is a medicine that combines the receptor-targeting property of a monoclonal antibody with the cell-killing property of a cytotoxic small molecule ...

Mining is one of the industries that’s helped by mathematical modelling: models can predict ceiling collapses and keep miners safe. Sunshine Seeds/Shutterstock/For editorial use only Imagine dropping ...

When particle physicists try to model experiments, they confront an impossible calculation — an infinitely long equation that lies beyond the reach of modern mathematics. Fortunately, they can ...

Computational chemistry has its roots in the early attempts by theoretical physicists, beginning in 1928, to solve the Schrödinger equation (see Box 2.1) using hand-cranked calculating machines. These ...

A new study introduces choice engineering—a powerful new way to guide decisions using math instead of guesswork. By applying carefully designed mathematical models, researchers found they could ...
