  1. Viewing cancer through an evolutionary lens and why this offers a radically different approach to treatment - Robert Gatenby
    The Drive Podcast (Peter Attia): “Robert (Bob) Gatenby is a radiologist who specializes in exploring theoretical and experimental models of evolutionary dynamics in cancer and cancer drug resistance. He has developed an adaptive therapy approach for treating cancer which has shown promise in improving survival times with less cumulative drug use. In this episode, Bob explains what brought him into medicine, his search for organizing principles from which to understand cancer, and the mathematical modeling of other complex systems that led him to model the dynamics of tumor cell changes in cancer.”

The newsletter now has a dedicated homepage where we post the cover artwork for each issue. We encourage submissions that coincide with the release of a recent paper from your group.

Caption: This image depicts a role complexity of network topology has to play in the emergent properties of biological systems. Our recent study revealed the presence of teams of nodes, defined as groups of nodes having positive “influence” on each other and negative influence on nodes not of their groups, is a common feature of complexity across multiple networks. We linked this property of the network topology to structural and dynamical robustness of the emergent phenotypes in the context of EMP. Disrupting these teams leads to reduced stability of the epithelial and mesenchymal phenotypes, increasing the incidence of hybrid phenotypes.
